## API
### `template(code, [opts])`
#### code
Type: `string`
#### options
`babel-template` accepts all of the options from [babylon], and specifies
some defaults of its own:
* `allowReturnOutsideFunction` is set to `true` by default.
* `allowSuperOutsideMethod` is set to `true` by default.
##### preserveComments
Type: `boolean`
Default: `false`
Set this to `true` to preserve any comments from the `code` parameter.
#### Return value
`babel-template` returns a `function` which is invoked with an optional object
of replacements. See the usage section for an example.
