Faucet-pipeline – a framework-independent, pluggable asset pipeline
- rane 8y agoHave recently used parcel[1] in multiple personal and work related projects to solve the same problem, and honestly, it's a joy compared to the webpack configuration hell. The key feature is that you hardly have to configure anything. For example, by referencing a javascript file in the index.html, the script and its dependencies are automatically included in the bundle minified with asset hash in the filename. On top of that, you get livereload for CSS and JS in watch mode. [1]: https://parceljs.org https://parceljs.org
- chrisweekly 8y agoWebpack and Babel continue to get simpler (eg zero-config defaults, babel macros, etc). I've heard nice things about Parcel. Is there a compelling reason to consider faucet-pipeline as an alternative? I did read the tldr: tl;dr: faucet-pipeline is a framework-independent, pluggable asset pipeline that takes the pain out of preprocessing JavaScript, CSS and associated files (e.g. images or fonts). It simplifies the process of converting modern JavaScript (ES6) to support older browsers (ES5), or Sass to CSS - eliminating typical low-level configuration nightmares.
