Does anyone know a bundle/plugin for compiling ES6 to ES5 in AEM? Something that will work like the existing Adobe Granite UI Clientlibs - Less Compiler.

Our team is using React in our project and is using Babel to compile ES6/JSX files to ES5. What is your usual workflow for this?

You can try babel.

I have passed this question to support to see if there are some support KBs. This is not a common AEM request and there is no docs or community articles on this use case.

Thank you, those JS files are actually being used on the front-end, but it makes sense to use it as well on the backend similar to how the Social Component Frameworks is created (via HandleBars)
