@stylexjs/babel-plugin

StyleX expects you to transform all js/ts/tsx files with @stylexjs/babel-plugin.
In addition to transforming JS code, this plugin also produces an Array of CSS rules. All the CSS rules
generated from all JS files within your project should be concatenated together and converted to a CSS
file using the processStyles function which is also exported from the same module.

@stylexjs/babel-plugin is fairly lightweight. It pre-computes stylex related functions like
create and keyframes by converting the argument AST to a JS object and transforming them
by passing them to the functions of the corresponding names within @stylex/shared

Babel Metadata

The StyleX Babel plugin does more than transform JavaScript (or TypeScript) files. It also returns a list of injected styles. The way that such a value can be returned while transforming a JS file is by using Babel's metadata API.

An example of this can be seen in some of the tests, but the result of using Babel's transform(...) function returns an object contains at least two keys:

1. code which is the transformed JS code
2. metadata is an object of metadata that the plugin may want to return as a side-effect.

e.g.

``js
const result = transformSync(sourceCode, {
filename: opts.filename,
parserOpts: { flow: { all: true } },
plugins: [stylexPlugin, opts],
});

const transformedCode = result.code;
const injectedStyles = result.metadata.stylex;
