+## babel-loader configuration example
+
+It's a basic configuration of the plugin and [babel-loader](https://github.com/babel/babel-loader).
+Very similar to the [ts-loader example](../ts-loader), the main difference in the configuration is that we
+enable **syntactic diagnostics**:
+
+```js
+new ForkTsCheckerWebpackPlugin({
+  typescript: {
+    diagnosticOptions: {
+      semantic: true,
+      syntactic: true,
+    },
+  },
+})
+```
