Okay, it's time to performance test @pika/web 🏎️💨
The theory to test is: Does this @pika/web's install perform as well or better than other app bundling strategies? github.com/pikapkg/web#perfo…
Using this thread to record thoughts as I go. Full write up coming later this week.

First task is to pick our test cases. I want to use some real world example apps, so I'm browsing github.com/ooade/awesome-pre… for some good starter & example apps.

I won’t speak for @rauchg, but the big question @pika/web is trying to ask/answer is: if nom could install dependencies that ran natively in the browser, would that be enough / would any other tooling be needed?

Cool! A huge thanks to everyone who checked out @pika/web and left a star/comment/feedback of any sort, really excited to see the different Pika projects connecting with people!
You can learn more about the greater Pika project is all about:

That’s exactly Pika’s goal as a project: use whatever tools you’d like, but webpack should never be a *requirement* for getting started.

Added @midudev's demo video to the README! Thanks again Miguel ✌
¡OJO con @pika/web! 👀⚡️
📦 Instala tus dependencias npm y úsalas directamente en el navegador.
✨ Sin bundlers, ni configuraciones de ningún tipo.
⚡️ Nativo, ESM, optimizado para http2... ¡y MUY rápido!
¡Muy pronto, vídeo más completo y artículo en midu.dev 👨💻!

@midudev let me know when you get to that article and I can update the demo URL that the readme points to

Powered by bundlephobia.com !
I like the size indicators on @pikapkg's home page. Use libraries. Not too many. Mostly under 10 KiB.

The Pika project is extremely promising. It's an "anti-bundler".
It lets the transport (HTTP/2) and browser deal with the complexity, not the developer. 1995 style.

Oh my god this video is amazing! @midudev is it alright if I link to it in the project README?

Doing some perf testing this weekend to confirm, but we may have come up with the best performing general-purpose bundling strategy in the game right now (and you don't even need to use a bundler 🤣)
1. Each pkg is installed to web_modules/ as a single JS file
2. With HTTP/2, this performs as well as a single bundle (vs. individual files which perform worse, even with H2 enabled)
3. Files only change when updated, letting the browser cache unchanged deps indefinitely

Welp... I wasn't planning to share this until next week, but it looks like the secret is out:
INTRODUCING: github.com/pikapkg/web
📦 Install npm dependencies that run directly in the browser.
✨ No bundlers or import maps required.
⚡️ Web-Native, HTTP/2 Optimized, FAST!
