Keep Webpack Fast: A Field Guide for Better Build Performance
If anyone is tired of Webpack configuration issues / slow performance, give Parcel a try:<p><a href="https://parceljs.org/" rel="nofollow">https://parceljs.org/</a><p>The project is less than two months old, so Parcel might not be a good fit for you. But if it is, it's usually a drop-in replacement. Zero configuration. Just run it and go.<p>We're working hard to add the most requested features: source map support is coming very soon, for example. But if you can put up with a few rough edges, Parcel promises to give you a ~5x performance increase over webpack.<p>(We kick off multiple processes to do the actual bundling work, and we have an asset cache, which accounts for most of the speedups.)<p>If you'd like to participate or have any questions, hop on our Slack! <a href="https://slack.parceljs.org/" rel="nofollow">https://slack.parceljs.org/</a> We have about 500 devs ready to help you out and chat with you (about anything, really).<p>Feel free to snag an issue and start working on it: <a href="https://github.com/parcel-bundler/parcel/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue+sort%3Aupdated-desc+" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/parcel-bundler/parcel/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%...</a> There's plenty of work to go around.<p>It's been really cool to see so many people pitching in. We recently had a Japanese contributor help get Parcel up and running for multi-language projects: <a href="https://qiita.com/zacky1972/items/0ce05454b67506edc634" rel="nofollow">https://qiita.com/zacky1972/items/0ce05454b67506edc634</a>
