I really like the kind of tech writing where a fellow developer lays out some specific needs, tries out different tech to fulfill those needs, and documents how it went for them.

That’s exactly what Andrew Walpole did here. He wanted to try out bundlers in the context of WordPress themes and needing a handful of specific files built. Two JavaScript and two Sass files, which can import things from npm, and need to be minified with sourcemaps and all that. Essentially the same crap we were doing when I wrote Grunt for People Who Think Things Like Grunt are Weird and Hard eight years ago. The process hasn’t gotten any easier, but at least it’s gotten faster.

The winner for Andrew: esbuild through Estrella.
