> Bazel is much too hard for TypeScript and JavaScript. We don't use Bazel for our frontend. New bundlers like Vite are much faster and have a developer experience that's hard to replicate with Bazel. Aspect.dev is doing some work on this front. One large hurdle is there's not automatic BUILD file dependency updater like Gazelle for Go.

I built this[0] for the Bazel + yarn setup that we use at Uber. We currently manage a 1000+ package monorepo with it.
