They are two different efforts, started a little while ago, one in Go and one in Rust. I believe esbuild was started first, but they both seem to be maturing rather well lately.

- hardwaregeek 5y agoJudging by the commit messages the first esbuild commit seems like Evan moved an existing project onto GitHub while the SWC commit seems like a genuine start. But also pretty unlikely that esbuild was being worked on for 3 years before being put on GitHub so your point still stands.
