Why we switched from Webpack to Vite
Webdev truly is one of a kind. Not only do you have your source code, you also have your build code, oddly dictating the organization of your source code. For extra fun, some libraries don't build with build system a, others require build system b, when you're lucky enough to have a working mix, changing build systems is better to be avoided. Of course periodically the officially blessed build system for your used libraries changes.<p>The webdev ecosystem is so broken, it's no wonder so many websites deliver assets that are extremely suboptimally optimised, big unused blobs of assets /scripts slowing page load, optimising it all is actually made harder than coding it all.
