Extending Error in Javascript with ES6 syntax & Babel

Question

I am trying to extend Error with ES6 and Babel. It isn\'t working out.

class MyError extends Error {
  constructor(m) {
    super(m);
  }
}

var error = new

As @sukima mentions, you cannot extend native JS. The OP's question cannot be answered.

Similar to Melbourne2991's answer, I did used a factory rather, but followed MDN's recommendation for customer error types.

function extendError(className){
  function CustomError(message){
    this.name = className;
    this.message = message;
    this.stack = new Error().stack; // Optional
  }
  CustomError.prototype = Object.create(Error.prototype);
  CustomError.prototype.constructor = CustomError;
  return CustomError;
}
