Syntax highlighting doesn't support async/await

Robbert Kauffman

Although Stitch functions support async/await, the syntax highlighting will show errors in the UI on the lines where async/await is used: 'Missing semicolon.'.

This is very confusing for users.

Hi Folks! 
As part of our upcoming re-brand of "Stitch" to "Realm" we'll also be migrating our feedback forum and joining the rest of MongoDB at feedback.mongodb.com, as part of that transition, we'll be shutting down this forum.  We're still keeping track of this feedback and all of the related comments/discussions, but all future updates will be made here:

ES6 and semicolons

Tony Archer

The current UI defaults to ES5. I would love it to default to the more efficient ES6.

Also, there are warning icons throughout about "missing semicolons" which don't matter. This particular warning should be removed. Even your example doesn't include semicolons out of the box.
