I ask because I'm debating between trialing TypeScript or Elm for a personal project (I primarily work in Rust and Go on the backend/infrastructure), and iteration times are important when trying to get a frontend UI "just right".

You could just use TypeScripts ES6 output directly during development, using a browser that supports ES6 natively, then add Babel to the build chain for public builds that need to work on older browsers.

Do I generally need to use prerelease browsers for ES6 support? Sorry, it's been a long time since I've been on the frontend.
The stable versions of Chrome, Firefox and Edge all support ES6 generators. Safari stable doesn't support them yet but the tech preview does.
