Isn't this because the vast majority of existing codebases and know-how are in webpack? They're trying to supplant webpack with a simple --turbo and keep existing momentum.
- pier25 3y agoAFAIK the JS ecosystem is moving onto Vite which uses esbuild and Rollup under the hood.
- reducesuffering 3y agoMoving on because webpack is bad and turbo repo is alpha, so yes Vite is the best of the bunch right now. But you asked what they were trying to do. Most codebases are still webpack, and only some new ones are using Vite. Significantly upgrading to a drop in webpack replacement, with performance and usability of Vite is more ideal, and that’s what they’re trying to do. Just migrate to Vite is like a version upgrade without backwards compatibility.
