This means you can use new built-ins like `Promise` or `WeakMap`, static methods like `Array.from` or `Object.assign`, instance methods like `Array.prototype.includes`, and generator functions (when used alongside the regenerator plugin). The polyfill adds to the global scope as well as native prototypes like `String` in order to do this.

For library/tool authors this may be too much. If you don't need the instance methods like `Array.prototype.includes` you can do without polluting the global scope altogether by using the [transform runtime](plugin-transform-runtime.md) plugin instead of `@babel/polyfill`.
