This is also your first chance to try out our new WASM-powered import scanner, first teased in this tweet. If you see a huge speed improvement, let us know!
⚡️ Snowpack just got faster, thanks to WASM!
@alexsaunderz replaced our old Babel-powered import scanner with the WASM-powered es-module-lexer. The next release will see install speed improvement of 1.5x or more!

🥳 Snowpack v1.5.0 just released with NEW gzip + brotli compressed size info in our `--stat` output table!
This looks so good, I wonder if it should be the new default output mode for Snowpack?

Bonus: The team was able to contribute PR improvements back to es-module-lexer and even make some suggestions to Node.js core (re: conditional exports in v13) based on our experience.
Thanks for the help, @guybedford! 🤝

Seeing a lot of posts on webpack, sideEffects: false, tree shaking, rollup, etc etc.
I like bundlers, because they avoid import waterfalls, and they're the only way to use modules if you need ie11 support, but...
God damn I can't wait to burn it all down and just use Snowpack.

The plan is to get to an open source release of the editor sometime in March. It's available to our Patreon supporters today, if you're interested in testing sooner :D

Maybe controversial opinion: Don't use create-react-app 🙅♂️
My GitHub notifications are clogged with people filing issues for customize-cra.
Just learn how to make a webpack config! It sucks, it can be frustrating, but you'll be better off, and self sufficient.

1/ Interesting explorations of what (parts of) future web dev might look like:
1. Snowpack: No build steps during development time
snowpack.dev
2. Deno: Node.js with more batteries included

We'll be updating our CDN (pika.dev/cdn) over the next week to add automatic transpilation for <=ES2019 browsers, so you can keep using modern packages in your project without fear.
