developit/microbundle ★ 8129 359 APPLICATION

Microbundle is a zero-configuration bundler for small JavaScript/TypeScript libraries, built on top of Rollup. It automatically generates multiple output formats (ESM, CJS, UMD, and a modern ES2017 bundle) from a single source entry, using package.json fields to determine input and output paths. The system reads the package.json, resolves entry points, and creates Rollup configurations for each format, applying Babel for transpilation (with custom presets for modern vs legacy targets), TypeScript via rollup-plugin-typescript2, CSS handling via PostCSS, and minification via Terser. It supports features like JSX, CSS Modules, property mangling, build-time constant replacement, module aliasing, Web Workers, and bundle visualization. The architecture is a CLI tool (`src/cli.js`) that parses arguments with `sade` and calls the core `microbundle()` function (`src/index.js`), which orchestrates the build pipeline. The codebase is well-structured, with reusable utility modules for option normalization, Babel plugin customization, and size reporting. While the dependency versions are somewhat dated (Rollup 2, Babel 7.12), the project remains actively maintained with recent commits and a comprehensive test suite covering many edge cases.
