About
esbuild is a high-performance JavaScript, CSS, TypeScript, and JSX bundler and minifier built for the web. It offers CLI, JavaScript, and Go APIs and supports features like tree shaking, source maps, watch mode, and a local development server. Its primary goal is to be 10-100x faster than existing build tools without requiring a cache.
Problem
Existing web build tools are 10-100x slower than they need to be, slowing down development workflows.
For
web developers and frontend engineers
How it works
esbuild bundles and minifies JavaScript, TypeScript, JSX, and CSS extremely fast using a purpose-built compiler written in Go, with APIs for CLI, JS, and Go environments.
