Esbuild – An extremely fast JavaScript bundler

Yet another one of these...

I'm sorry, but the node.js community needs to stop producing these stuff... it doesn't do anything better than all the webpack vs gulp vs parcel vs snowpack vs rollup vs how many bundlers again?

I recently switched to esbuild and I am delighed. My build time dropped from 30s to 2s and I was able to remove a lot of dependencies. So IMHO they need to continue producing these stuff to push the innovation forward.

I agree with you in principle, but your comment makes it clear that you didn't actually look into this one at all. This one is actually good.

People have said say that same thing each time a new one pops up since Grunt 10 years+ ago.

If you're going to use a JS bundler written in Go, just stick to MAKEFILE...

    dist.js: $(wildcard *.js)
        cat $? > dist.js

Like this?
