  • Summary:
    • The Three Pillars of JavaScript Bloat Over the last couple of years, we’ve seen significant growth of the e18e community and a rise in performance focused contributions because of it.
    • A large part of this is the “cleanup” initiative, where the community has been pruning packages which are redundant, outdated, or unmaintained.
    • One of the most common topics that comes up as part of this is “dependency bloat” - the idea that npm dependency trees are getting larger over time, often with long since redundant code which the platform now provides natively.
