Does anyone have a publicly available version of Sage 8 with updated build tools to support ES6?
I really like building with Sage 8 but find it is limited without ES6 support. I’ve tried Sage 9, and while it has some great enhancements, I find it too complex for my requirements.
Has anyone tried using esbuild or some of the other build tools other than webpack? Would be really interested to know.
Sage 8 is Gulp based (I also got some legacy Sage 8 projects btw.) If you are lucky it could be just some extra lines of config to your Gulpfile, see this tutorial (what comes up when searching for gulp+babel setup):
