In order to solve the @babel errors, you will need to install all the @babel packages:

NPM

npm install babel-core babel-loader babel-preset-env 
babel-preset-react babel-polyfill babel-runtime @babel/helpers 
@babel/helper-builder-react-jsx-experimental @babel/helper-builder-react-jsx 
@babel/helper-define-map @babel/helper-plugin-utils @babel/helper-regex

YARN

yarn add babel-core babel-loader babel-preset-env 
babel-preset-react babel-polyfill babel-runtime @babel/helpers 
@babel/helper-builder-react-jsx-experimental @babel/helper-builder-react-jsx 
@babel/helper-define-map @babel/helper-plugin-utils @babel/helper-regex

In order to run your React.JS project on Amplify, here is all the babel packages I installed to solve all problems:

  • babel-core
  • babel-loader
  • babel-preset-env
  • babel-preset-react
  • babel-polyfill
  • babel-runtime
  • @babel/helpers
  • @babel/helper-builder-react-jsx
  • @babel/helper-builder-react-jsx-experimental
  • @babel/helper-define-map
  • @babel/helper-plugin-utils
  • @babel/helper-regex

After, that, you should be able to see your React.JS app online with Amplify:
