What is the current behavior?:

Fragment short syntax breaks the parser.

What is the expected behavior?: Extract messages works even if the solution uses the shorthand syntax for React Fragments.

Suggested solution: Update dependencies? No idea. Babylon package says it's now at "babel/babel as @babel/parser" -- don't know if that one works with the shorter syntax though.

I got the same Unexpected token issue. Although my problem is that it wasn't parsing Typescript interface properly without semicolons.

any update on this ? will the shorthand syntax be supported ? thanks !
