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!

Today I discovered that the polyfills we ship for features that exist in all modern browsers are, in total, as large as the web app itself 🤦‍♂️.

🙌 @freethejazz wrote up a great walkthrough & some first impressions of @pika/pack on @infoworld. Thanks for sharing your experience!
I wrote up my experience of building and publishing a CLI tool on @npmjs to look up official images and recent tags on docker hub using @pikapkg on @infoworld. Check it out: bit.ly/2GRMVpE and download `dlook` with `npm i -g dlook-cli`!

Built and published a CLI tool to npm this morning with @pikapkg's @pika/pack . Worked pretty well, and now I can search for official docker containers on the command line 🎉 Write-up coming tomorrow on @infoworld. npmjs.com/package/dlook-cli

This entire thread, and the response where this is allowed/blessed by npm, is insane

Me explaining to @keraito how transpiling `async-await` results in massive code bloat (ship ES2015 to greatly speed up your website, like @github was able to do!):

Oh, did I mention that @pika/pack generates & configures TypeScript definitions for every package build, even if you're just writing JavaScript? pikapkg.com/blog/introducing…

The pipeline concept is so flexible, your package doesn't even need to be JS. Any compile-to-WASM language can be built into a package 📦⚡️ Official plugins exist for @reasonml, OCaml, AssemblyScript, with planned support for C, C++ & Rust. 👀 pikapkg.com/blog/introducing…
