evanw/esbuild
An extremely fast bundler for the web
The bundler that made JavaScript tooling fast again — esbuild bundles and minifies JS, TS, JSX and CSS without needing a cache, claiming 10-100x speed gains over older build tools. It supports ESM/CommonJS, tree shaking, source maps, a dev server, watch mode, and plugins via CLI, JS, or Go APIs—useful for anyone frustrated with slow web builds.
