A transcompiler, also known as a source-to-source compiler or transpiler, is a program that translates source code from one programming language to another. This is distinct from a traditional compiler, which translates source code into machine code or an intermediate representation that can be executed by a computer. Transpilers operate at a higher level of abstraction, converting code written in one high-level language to an equivalent program in another high-level language.
The primary motivation for using transcompilers is often to leverage features of a newer or more modern
Transpilation can facilitate code migration between languages, allow developers to use preferred languages for projects that
