Also if you are interested in what trans compiled code looks like, head to this site that will transcompile anything given to it. https://babeljs.io/. - Source: dev.to / 10 days ago

Some of the most popular JavaScript linting tools are ESLint, JSHint, JSLint and JSCS. We're going to be using ESLint. It’s very flexible, easy to use and has the best ES6 support, which will be helpful if we introduce more modern JavaScript (that will be transpiled for older browsers using https://babeljs.io/). All rules for ESLint can be found here: https://eslint.org/docs/rules/. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

This simply extends the existing build process that many front-end frameworks have. After Babel's done with its transpilation, it merely executes code to compile your initial screen into static HTML and CSS. This isn't entirely dissimilar from how SSR hydrates your initial screen, but it's done at compile-time, not at request time. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

First, we switched the default compiler for new projects from Babel to SWC (Speedy Web Compiler). SWC is dramatically faster than Babel and requires zero configuration. We’ll continue to support Babel in any project currently using it. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

Nuxt.js is an open-source JavaScript framework built on Vue.js, Node.js, Vite, and Babel.js used for creating fast, cutting-edge applications. Nuxt.js possesses similar features to Next.js, with the major difference being the web framework it is compatible with. Next.js is a React framework whereas Nuxt.js is a Vue framework. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

There are some handy tools for identifying and addressing problematic bundles. One of them, Bundlephobia, gives insights into how much an NPM package contributes to bundle size, helping avoid too large collections of files. Import Cost, a VSCode Extension, calculates the 'cost' of imported packages, helping to make informed decisions. As part of our optimization strategy, we've swapped out hefty JS libraries, such... - Source: dev.to / 8 days ago

So, before adding a dependency to your projects, ask yourself if you truly need it and check how much a package weighs. If you would like to go through cleaning up process, I wrote an article on optimizing Next.js bundle size on my private blog. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

🔴 https://bundlephobia.com/ - estimate a footprint, basically how many Kb will be added to your bundle when you add this dependency to your project. Those may differ a lot, try comparing say - dayjs vs momentjs ;. - Source: dev.to / 10 months ago

I have phobia of dependencies and package sizes, so tiptap is 62KB and remirror is 150KB. Not much difference, since difference is no in MB's. Source: 10 months ago

External packages increase your app bundle size (you can calculate this using BundlePhobia), so adding a third-party package for every development requirement isn’t always a good choice. Also, third-party packages may not completely fulfill your design requirements and may bring features that you don’t even use. Writing your own stepper component is also an option by including only the required features. - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago
