Or do we use SWC as its quicker or something. https://blog.logrocket.com/why-you-should-use-swc/
I recently wrapped this library to inline a bunch of things, and introduced babel, if someone picks this issue up the changes might provide some good inspiration: https://github.com/Rhosys/openapi-resolver.js
I don't think Webpack or Babel are needed for this. If we want the codebase to be ESM, we can set type
to module
in package.json
and have conditional exports that look like:
{
"exports": {
"import": "lib/index.js",
"require": "lib/index.cjs"
}
}
Then index.cjs
can re-export what's in index.js
but for CommonJS. This should work for Node versions all the way back to 12.6.x.
@kevinswiber oh if that works then brilliant! I had a quick go and again clearly don't know what I'm doing because my wild stabs are giving more errors.
I have zero experience in setting up Webpack and Babel but apparently that's going to be needed to ESMify this package and remove a lot of the old-school JS stuff in here.
Modernizing and deleting things to simplify life sounds good, and made #288 seem appealing, but it's turned into a bit of a mess as it now seems like we'll need to make everything completely ESM and then convert to CommonJS format with Babel?
If anyone can do this I will pay them money, and if anyone wants this but doesn't know how please sponsor the package so that I have money to pay whoever does it.
