EnchantPack - Merlin's bundler

EnchantHarvest - Merlin's file collector

Build webpack from scratch

• Add a --minify flag that runs a minifier like terser on each individual file in the bundle.

• Add a --Gzip flag that send response of compressed resources or use brotli, learn about Content-Encoding

• Add a --treeShaking flag that tree shakes the code

• Add a --codeSplitting flag that makes lazy load the code

• Add a cache that will store transformed files and only re-compile files that have changed.

• Medium: Learn about source maps and generate the corresponding .map file for your bundle.

• Medium: Add a --dev option that starts a HTTP server that serves the bundled code through an HTTP endpoint.

• Medium: After implementing the HTTP server, make use of jest-haste-map’s watch function to listen for changes and re-bundle automatically.

• Advanced: Learn about Import Maps and change the bundler from being require based to work with native ESM!

• Advanced: Hot reloading: Adjust the runtime so it can update modules by first de-registering and then re-running the module and all of its dependencies.

• Advanced: Rewrite the above bundler in another programming language like Rust.
