I am using Laravel 5.5 , in webpack.mix file the mix.styles function works perfectly and i compile my css files perfectly but mix.scripts doesn't compile the js files i found in the documentation that mix.babel Its method signature is identical to scripts.mix so i used it but nothing changed
this is my webpack.mix.js file
let mix = require('laravel-mix');
/*

mix.js('resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public/js')
.sass('resources/assets/sass/app.scss', 'public/css');
mix.styles([
'resources/assets/css/libs/blog-post.css',
'resources/assets/css/libs/bootstrap.css',
'resources/assets/css/libs/font-awesome.css',
'resources/assets/css/libs/metisMenu.css',
'resources/assets/css/libs/sb-admin-2.css',
'resources/assets/css/libs/test.css'
], 'public/css/libs.css');
mix.babel([
'resources/assets/js/libs/jquery.js',
'resources/assets/js/libs/bootstrap.js',
'resources/assets/js/libs/metisMenu.js',
'resources/assets/js/sb-admin-2.js',
