Snowpack: Build a web application without a bundler
Seriously, people in this thread should really stop complaining about &#x27;complexity&#x27; in the web space if they really haven&#x27;t written &amp; maintained a jQuery application. Most of JS tooling stems from 1. different browsers and 2. (the once) nonexistent module system. Until very recently, 2 didn&#x27;t have any solutions (so Browserify, Webpack, Parcel, and various different bundlers exist) and 1 still doesn&#x27;t (and so Babel exists).<p>These tools aren&#x27;t the simplest things, but so is everything, everywhere. Complexity needs to exist somewhere, and using an abstraction to hide them is something natural. Do people think we shouldn&#x27;t use compilers because we &#x27;can&#x27; write binary ELF files directly? Same goes to JS.
