What Hacker News says?

  1. use webpack for bundling and typescript for typechecking. not that far off from the typescript + babel workflow and way less overhead. just use tsc as a linter. https://iamturns.com/typescript-babel/ and someone else pointed out that esbuild drops typechecking. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33336803
