I managed to complete the Transpilation project without any problems - converting ES6 Javascript syntax to ES5 Javascript using Babel node using the bash terminal.
However, I wanted to try this on my own computer using windows 10. Based on previous exercises I downloaded the Babel node to my computer, as well as the Bash terminal. Using the exact same project files in the codecademy project, copied and pasted to my computer directory I tried to convert the main.js in the same way, however all that occurs is that the main.js is copied exactly the same into a new lib folder.
In other words the syntax is not converted from ES6 to ES5, it just stays the same despite the json.package appearing to install correctly. I assume that the reason might be that I downloaded Babel incorrectly.
Anyone else have this problem or able to point me in the right direction?
