Happy Birthday Babel 🎂 !

We released Babili as beta (0.0.1) a few days ago under an MIT license!

Try it out in the Babel REPL and report any bugs or potential optimizations we can make! There's also a #minify slack room!

A new es2017, latest preset, and lots of fixes in this release.

Babel Doctor is heavily inspired ripped from the awesome Yeoman Doctor by Sindre Sorhus.

babel-doctor has been removed as of v6.18.0 of babel-cli. If anyone needs it we will bring it back as a standalone npm module called babel-doctor.

Babel 6 is fresh off the press and we’re still getting a lot sorted out. In the past two days we've seen more activity on GitHub and Slack than ever before. Everyone who has been helping out has been doing a great job.

However, the documentation is still lacking at this point, I’m currently going through and creating an entirely new “Getting Started” section of the site.
