Why to delete your babel.config.js file ?

[mohan-win]

Hi, Thanks a lot for the detailed steps. Wondering why we need to delete the babel.config.js ?

I second this question ;) It actually produces errors.

Sorry, i did not notice this issue until @retendo commented! You do not need to delete your babel.config.js file, but in my experience its the easiest and fastest way to get up an running. Note that i do not really have a strong Babel expertise, at all, and someone with a better understanding could probably provide you with better info and a better setup. The how-to should however be updated to reflect this, as the current wording implies deleting the file is a requirement.

This seems to fix the errors: SAFE-Stack/SAFE-Nightwatch#74 (comment)

I have included filename: "App.js" in the splitter configuration in 8c6e340 and the error is no longer present while still including the babel.config.js file. As you can see here parts of Babels functionality is not available when the filename is unknown.
