Yes and additionally (with Chrome's DevTools) you get out-of-the-box functionality like the ability to set a break point, live edit your code right at the breakpoint, and save your change right back to the filesystem. With transpiled languages this kind of workflow is generally less streamlined -- I don't know why more people don't complain about it. The best alternatives I've seen are when people completely reengineer the workflow - I'm thinking about the Elm debugger as an example.
