@ -8,7 +8,7 @@ Babel uses very small helpers for common functions such as `_extend`. By default
This is where the runtime transformer plugin comes in: all of the helpers will reference the module babel-runtime to avoid duplication across your compiled output. The runtime will be compiled into your build.

Another purpose of this transformer is to create a sandboxed environment for your code. If you use [babel-polyfill](https://github.com/contentful/contentful-space-sync/releases/tag/v3.0.0) and the built-ins it provides such as `Promise`, `Set` and `Map`, those will pollute the global scope. While this might be ok for an app or a command line tool, it becomes a problem if your code is a library which you intend to publish for others to use or if you can't exactly control the environment in which your code will run.

The transformer will alias these built-ins to `core-js` so you can use them seamlessly without having to require the polyfill. The transformer will alias these built-ins to `core-js` so you can use them seamlessly without having to require the polyfill.
