Frontend

A sufficiently decentralized social network. farcaster.xyz

does anyone have strong opinions on bundling libraries made for use in the browser?

what I've arrived at so far for @farcaster/frame-sdk is:
- tsc to transpile to js for everyone developing in a modern JS stack
- esbuild to out an iife to include directly in a script via CDN

it seems stupidly simple

I looked at micobundler, tsup, pkgroll but they all seemed to do more things than I wanted without any clear benefit

Building @warpcast and @farcaster, new dad, like making food

if you don’t actually need to test in a browser (e.g. if it’s a crypto library) you might consider just using bun. most of the time, though, you’ll probs want the a basic local file server and hot reload. for those cases i tend to use vite, bc gives you the build step and the dev env w minimal config
