As long as you do the bare minimum for each target.
- jokethrowaway 4y agoparcel is great, I always use it for personal project and it works pretty well Normally I start with something else (webpack, rollup, whatever happened to be there with the example I'm starting from), then when I hit some roadblocks I just parcel index.html and I have something working.
- wonderbore 4y agoParcel is great, until it isn’t. I regularly try to switch to Parcel and it’s just impossible on larger projects. If you start with parcel, great! (maybe, as long as you just need to bundle 2 modules and that’s it)
- paulhodge 4y agoOne of the things that makes frontend dev a nightmare is having to wrangle so many different tools and configurations to build a site, even a simple one. The only next step to improve the situation is all-in-one tools. We're lucky that people are trying to tackle this hard problem.
