Summary
Closes babel/babel#7357
Adds a concrete, step-by-step code example showing how to use
@babel/plugin-transform-runtimein a Node.js application using@babel/register.The existing docs cover config file, CLI, and bare Node API usage — but there was no example showing the common real-world pattern of using
@babel/registerwith the plugin in a running Node app.What was added
A new "In a Node.js application" subsection under the Usage → Via Node API heading, covering:
@babel/register,@babel/runtime, etc.)babel.config.jsonwith the pluginregister.jsentry point that hooks into Node'srequirenode register.jsAlso includes a tip about pre-compiling for production use.
Motivation
This was a long-standing gap in the docs (babel/babel#7357, opened 2018). Developers integrating Babel into Node.js apps repeatedly hit this use case and couldn't find a concrete example in the official docs.
