+To use [Babel](http://babeljs.io/), install required dependencies via `yarn`:

 ```
 
-Don't forget to add a [`babel.config.js`](https://babeljs.io/docs/en/config-files) file in your project's root folder. For example, if you are using ES2018 and [React](https://reactjs.org) with the [`@babel/preset-env`](https://babeljs.io/docs/en/babel-preset-env) and [`@babel/preset-react`](https://babeljs.io/docs/en/babel-preset-react) presets:
+Configure Babel to target your current version of Node by creating a `babel.config.js` file in the root of your project:
 
-```js
+```javascript
+// babel.config.js
 module.exports = {
- presets: ['@babel/preset-env', '@babel/preset-react'],
+ presets: [
+ [
+ '@babel/preset-env',
+ {
+ targets: {
+ node: 'current',
+ },
+ },
+ ],
+ ],
 };
 ```
 
-You are now set up to use all ES2018 features and React-specific syntax.
+**The ideal configuration for Babel will depend on your project.** See [Babel's docs](https://babeljs.io/docs/en/) for more details.
+
+Jest will set `process.env.NODE_ENV` to `'test'` if it's not set to something else. You can use that in your configuration to conditionally setup only the compilation needed for Jest, e.g.
+
+```javascript
+// babel.config.js
+module.exports = api => {
+ const isTest = api.env('test');
+ // You can use isTest to determine what presets and plugins to use.
+
+ return ...
+};
+```
 
 > Note: `babel-jest` is automatically installed when installing Jest and will automatically transform files if a babel configuration exists in your project. To avoid this behavior, you can explicitly reset the `transform` configuration option:
 
-```json
-// package.json
-{
- "jest": {
- "transform": {}
- }
-}
+```javascript
+// jest.config.js
+module.exports = {
+ transform: {},
+};
 ```
