transpiling JSX without Babel

Is there a stand-alone transpiler for converting JSX to JavaScript (i.e. just <foo … /> → createElement("foo", …), nothing else)?

I know I could just use Babel with the transform-react-jsx plugin, but would not want to prescribe an ES6 transpiler.

I think your best bet is going to be using Babel, since the other standalone packages are not being updated/maintained.

I'm not sure why you have an aversion to using Babel, but you can pick the transformations that are applied, you can use it programmatically, and you can even use a standalone version that works in the browser, so I think it should suit your needs.
