Finally. The extreme slugishness of webpack&co has always bugged me any time I ventured into JS development, to the point of me getting immediately discouraged.
- tmpz22 7y agoIt’s a natural cycle though. New bundler created that is fast and simple to use -> New features are requested and added to the bundler which makes it more sluggish -> New bundler created that is fast and simple. I wonder how this compares to ParcelJS. I’m a big fan of Go but there are usually fringe benefits in having the bundler written in the language that it is bundling I.e. JavaScript.
- mtmail 7y agoBenchmark against parcel is in the documentation. 200x faster.
- tmpz22 7y agoThat’s exceptional, if the benchmarks test identical workloads and features I would definitely consider switching to this. FWIW it may sound like I’m hostile to this framework when I’m just trying to be critical in a constructive way. I use golang as my main driver at work and find most projects in Go to be better then its common counterparts, however I have been through so many JS bundlers that I scratch my head when anyone claims superior results on (Self-declared) hobby ones. OP should know this seems really solid and like great work. I just don’t want junior devs running head first putting this in production.
