Precisely. I'd advise having esbuild behind Babel if you really need an specific Babel plugin, for ex: * Transform the file using esbuild first * Then use Babel with that one specific plugin (Loadable Components, Styled Components, Apollo, React Refresh...) This is much faster than letting Babel do all the work.
