  • Announcing Parcel CSS: A new CSS parser, compiler, and minifier written in Rust!

    I love seeing more and more of the frontend tooling space migrating to Rust. Next.js recently moved their TypeScript compiler to swc , which Parcel is also using. Parcel also has a source maps library written in Rust. The Rome Toolchain is being rewritten in Rust. And I strongly suspect there are at least a couple other large scale Rust-for-the-frontend projects being built at FAANG-scale companies :)

    Okay. The normal setup is that you use https://github.com/TypeStrong/ts-loader or https://github.com/TypeStrong/fork-ts-checker-webpack-plugin as part of your Webpack config. Those will run the TS compilation step as part of the Webpack processing sequence.

    I work on a TypeScript project of similar size and complexity, and ours does not take even nearly that long to compile on save. Have you tried fork-ts-checker-webpack-plugin? We had compile times similar to yours until we started using it. Went from >60s to <1s builds in development. It's very simple to set up.
  • Do you guys compile with ts-loader or babel-loader?

    Yeah, I mean less loaders = less time. Did you try fork ts checker and compileOnly? https://github.com/TypeStrong/fork-ts-checker-webpack-plugin
  • Hey when I want to run a vue frontend I need to increase my memory size, because js jumps out of memory.

    That worker/memory limit is for the type checking only (rather than runtime memory), I believe this is done using https://github.com/TypeStrong/fork-ts-checker-webpack-plugin

    There are many ways to integrate TypeScript with an existing Webpack configuration. If you use the babel-loader package to transpile JavaScript files, you can add the @babel/preset-typescript preset to generate JavaScript files and the Fork TS Checker Webpack Plugin package to run the TypeScript type checker so that the build fails if there are type errors.

    I cloned github repo into a new dir, ran install with --frozen-lockfile and test-gui with --clean and got the same error. Looks like it's coming from fork-ts-checker-webpack-plugin and then found this among its reported issues: (https://github.com/TypeStrong/fork-ts-checker-webpack-plugin/issues/562).
