1. UglifyJS2

   1 18 13,250 8.6 JavaScript

   JavaScript parser / mangler / compressor / beautifier toolkit

   

   UglifyJS was one of the first used to compress JS code, and now its download volume is also very large.

3. webpack

   2 361 65,014 9.9 JavaScript

   A bundler for javascript and friends. Packs many modules into a few bundled assets. Code Splitting allows for loading parts of the application on demand. Through "loaders", modules can be CommonJs, AMD, ES6 modules, CSS, Images, JSON, Coffeescript, LESS, ... and your custom stuff.

   

   Packagers are the ones we most frequently come into contact with, such as Webpack Vite and Parcel. The latter may not be commonly used, but it is also a well-established tool.

4. vite

   3 883 70,498 9.9 TypeScript

   Next generation frontend tooling. It's fast!

   

   Packagers are the ones we most frequently come into contact with, such as Webpack Vite and Parcel. The latter may not be commonly used, but it is also a well-established tool.

5. vercel

   4 565 13,214 9.9 TypeScript

   Develop. Preview. Ship.

   

   Turbopack is a JS packaging tool developed by Vercel using Rust for Next.js projects, and can also be used independently.

6. swc

   5 154 31,617 9.9 Rust

   Rust-based platform for the Web

   

   However, new tools such as SWC and esbulid now also support JS code compression, and their execution efficiency is higher. After all, Rust or Go inherently have much higher execution efficiency than JS.

7. rspack

   6 14 10,712 9.9 Rust

   The fast Rust-based web bundler with webpack-compatible API 🦀️

   

   Rspack is developed using the Rust language, but it is not just a JS compiler. It is a comprehensive packaging tool with high efficiency.

8. Rollup

   7 85 25,565 9.5 JavaScript

   Next-generation ES module bundler

   

   Meanwhile, esbulid (developed in Go language, as introduced earlier) and rollup can also be used separately as packaging tools, and many third-party JS plugins are packaged using rollup.
