Edit

babel-plugin-transform-flow-comments

You should be able to use this plugin instead of babel-plugin-flow-strip-types to preserve the /* @flow */ directive and still use flow.

Example

In

function foo(bar?) {}
function foo2(bar?: string) {}
function foo(x: number): string {}
type B = {
  name: string;
};
export type GraphQLFormattedError = number;
import type A, { B, C } from './types';
import typeof D, { E, F } from './types';

Out

"use strict";

function foo2(bar /*:: ?: string*/) {}
