Transpilers work by parsing the source code into a data structure known as an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST), which represents the code’s syntactic structure in a tree format.
Transpilers work by parsing the source code into a data structure known as an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST), which represents the code’s syntactic structure in a tree format. The transpiler then transforms this AST of the source language (Python) into the AST of the target language (JavaScript), which is converted into runnable JavaScript code.
