Mako – fast, production-grade web bundler based on Rust
Mako - Mako is Now Open Source
I am thrilled to announce that Mako is finally open source, the Github url is https://github.com/umijs/mako/, and I’m excited to formally introduce it to you today. For instance, 1) the maturity level of community libraries and their compatibility with Ant’s needs, we researched all the community Rust build solutions before starting, ultimately deciding on creating our own, 2) having control, due to business reasons, build tools at Ant require a lot of customization, and this proved true as we found many matching needs after internal release, 3) the modern meta-frameworks require compilation-time frameworks, in addition to build, they also have a lot of compilation needs, especially in SSR & RSC scenarios, for example, RSC scenarios required 4 builds internally, 4) the need to learn Rust and for team growth, modern frontend tools are all written in Rust, and we would fall behind if we did not advance. Additionally, Mako also has an experimental SSU feature, similar to the previous MFSU implementation, which does packaging and caching of dependencies.
