I feel like esbuild covers everything I need. I haven't tried the Rust-based ones but they look promising as well. esbuild can deal with Typescript, embed WASM binaries that are importable, do minification, etc. Yes, it's true that Babel will let you use more bleeding edge features but I'm OK with waiting for those to stabilize. In other words, I don't think bundlers are evil, and bundlers can deal with ES Modules just fine if they want to. I will admit that I have a minority philosophy in that I try to minimize my dependency tree for JS projects as much as possible, so maybe some Webpack features are unnecessary for me.
