In general, I find that compilers, transpilers, etc. are all just "interpreters", which conceptually just boil down to a given input being "re-interpreted" into a new representation. Thus, what we commonly call interpreters re-interpret programs into results, compilers just re-interpret into an executable, transpilers into a different language, etc.
