+
+## Setup
+
+Step 1
+: Install [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download)
+
+Step 2
+: Install the required Node.js packages in the root of your project.
+
+```sh
+npm install --save-dev @babel/core @babel/cli
+```
+
+Step 3
+: Add the babel executable to Hugo's `security.exec.allow` list in your site configuration:
+
+{{< code-toggle file=hugo >}}
+[security.exec]
+  allow = ['^(dart-)?sass(-embedded)?$', '^go$', '^npx$', '^postcss$', '^babel$']
+{{< /code-toggle >}}
+
+## Configuration
+
+We add the main project's `node_modules` to `NODE_PATH` when running Babel and similar tools. There are some known [issues](https://github.com/babel/babel/issues/5618) with Babel in this area, so if you have a `babel.config.js` living in a Hugo Module (and not in the project itself), we recommend using `require` to load the presets/plugins, e.g.:
+
+```js
+module.exports = {
+  presets: [
+    [
+      require("@babel/preset-env"),
+      {
+        useBuiltIns: "entry",
+        corejs: 3,
+      },
+    ],
+  ],
+};
+```
+
+## Options
+
+config
+: (`string`) Path to the Babel configuration file. Hugo will, by default, look for a `babel.config.js` in your project. More information on these configuration files can be found here: [babel configuration](https://babeljs.io/docs/en/configuration).
+
+minified
+: (`bool`) Save as many bytes as possible when printing
+
+noComments
+: (`bool`) Write comments to generated output (true by default)
+
+compact
+: (`bool`) Do not include superfluous whitespace characters and line terminators. Defaults to `auto` if not set.
+
+verbose
+: (`bool`) Log everything
+
+sourceMap
+: (`string`) Output `inline` or `external` sourcemap from the babel compile. External sourcemaps will be written to the target with the output file name + ".map". Input sourcemaps can be read from js.Build and node modules and combined into the output sourcemaps.
