bundless
Next gen dev server and bundler
project under heavy development
Features
- 10x faster than traditional bundlers
- Error panel with sourcemap support
- jsx, typescript out of the box
- import assets, import css
What's the difference with traditional tools like Webpack?
- Faster dev server times and faster build speeds (thanks to esbuild)
- Bundless serves native ES modules to the browser, removing the overhead of parsing each module before serving
- Bundless uses a superset of esbuild plugin system to let users enrich its capabilities
What's the difference with tools like vite?
Bundless is very similar to vite, both serve native es modules to the browser and build a bundled version for production.
Also both are based on a plugin system that can be shared between the dev server and the bundler.
Some differences are:
- Bundless uses the esbuild plugin system instead of rollup
- Bundless uses esbuild instead of rollup for the production bundle
- Bundless still lacks some features like css modules (depends on esbuild) and more framework support (coming soon)
