Why are people comparing this with esbuild? Isn’t esbuild a minifier and bundler, so it can replace webpack. As opposed to SWC replacing babel? Am i missing something?
I think both esbuild and SWC remove the need to distinguish between a bundler and a transpiler. They both can do both. Esbuild only understands an AST that can "compile" to js, so it does what babel does just in that, can't speak to SWC but I bet it's the same situation.
