It also includes versions of the plugins compiled with Babel, so they can be run on old Node versions (0.6 and up).
npm install acorn-node
var acorn = require('acorn-node')
The API is the same as acorn, but with plugins to match Node.js behaviour.
- Currently no plugins are in use as the main

The following options have different defaults from acorn, to match Node modules:
ecmaVersion: 2022
allowHashBang: true
allowReturnOutsideFunction: true
var walk = require('acorn-node/walk')
The Acorn syntax tree walker. Comes preconfigured for the syntax plugins if necessary. See the acorn documentation for details.
