Vite seems to be powering many of these meta frameworks. Will it be the new Webpack?



No, go back about a week to the thread here on esbuild: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26399377 Esbuild is a go-based tool that takes the place of babel, webpack, tsc, etc. and is much, much faster than webpack. Vite adds a nicer dev experience on top of esbuild (hot module reloading, etc.).


not tsc. There has been attempts to build a faster tsc but I have not seen any results yet.


I only know of one active attempt at: https://stc.dudy.dev/docs/status from the author of swc. You may ask kdy to test but the product is closed source unlike swc.


talked to the author on mail. it will remain a closed source product


I think there is a faster TSC, I forget what it's called, but it's significantly faster. It just isn't as fully fledged as TSC.


It takes the place of TSC as a compiler which is a significant speed-up. You still need tsc for the actual type-checking.
