When running the gulp command in Laravel 5.3, the following error occurs:

According to this post, https://github.com/gajus/babe...
There are two solutions:
1.

npm i -D -E babel-preset-es2015@6.9.0

2.

// .babelrc
{
  "presets": [
    ["es2015", {"modules": false}]
  ]
}

I want to use the second method, but there are two questions:
1. Where should the .babelrc file be placed?
2. Do I need to delete anything and then reinstall it?
