How do you make a coding language?

As everything complex we do that in steps:

1. We build a parser: the parser is the part of our compiler that takes the text of our programs and understand which commands they express.
2. (optional) We translate the parse tree into an Abstract Syntax Tree.
3. We resolve symbols.
4. We validate the tree.
5. We generate the machine code.

What is Babel transpiler?

Babel is a JavaScript transpiler that converts edge JavaScript into plain old ES5 JavaScript that can run in any browser (even the old ones). It makes available all the syntactical sugar that was added to JavaScript with the new ES6 specification, including classes, fat arrows and multiline strings.

Which transpiler is used in angular?

TypeScript is a primary language for Angular application development. It is a superset of JavaScript with design-time support for type safety and tooling. Browsers can’t execute TypeScript directly. Typescript must be “transpiled” into JavaScript using the tsc compiler, which requires some configuration.
