How do I bundle, minify and transpile JavaScript code using ASP.NET bundleConfig.cs

Viewed 561

I have an old ASP.NET site which using using the built in bundling and minification using the bundleConfig.cs

This is great, however when I have added some ES6 syntax to my JavaScript it no longer minifies correctly.

Is there a way to transpile the code first before it is minified without having to install NodeJs and using Bable as per the following example? Is there a way I can use Babel straight from the ASP.Net website before the files are minified?

The problem is I don't really want to have to convert every JavaScript file to have exportable functions etc as the code base is quite large. Unless there is a way which I can export all the code in a JavaScript file in one go and import just the files into a new master js budle file?
