- speedgoose 4y agoYes no one cares about the JavaScript bundle size until it becomes a problem.
- 6510 4y agoI prefer not to create problems for myself.
- speedgoose 4y agoSure, but it’s more challenging to keep the bundle size very low for no reasons if you want to use modern tooling and work in a team. It’s fine for your personal hobby website, but people at work shouldn’t waste times and create problems to avoid a small and rare problem.
- randomtwiddler 4y agoThe amount of friction a designer gets for adding several multi MB images to a page, in every organization I've worked for, is very little. 2 MB minified, compressed, ball of js is nothing. I've even seen companies accidentally put their debug builds in production (>15MB js ball) with without noticing or getting complaints. I'm much more sensitive to page weight than most, and every sizable dev shop should have someone who is. But even I realize that current business reality is it didn't matter nearly as much as sensitive tech people think.
