Frontend build tools combining the best parts of Symfony Encore and Laravel Mix

---

What is bud.js?

bud.js is a web-focused build tool with add-on support for Babel, React, PostCSS, Sass, Typescript, esbuild, ESLint, Prettier, and more.

bud.js is written in TypeScript but fully supports projects written in vanilla JavaScript.

Goals

bud.js wants to be:

• Reliable, yielding consistent and predictable behaviors regardless of specified options.
• Fast, leveraging parallel processing, smart caching and an asyncronous events based API to keep build times minimal.
• Extensible, with a fully featured plugin system to support an ecosystem of packaged modules
• Simple, to get started and straight forward to maintain

Features

• Zero config by default. Check out this codesandbox template with react, postcss modules and no config.
• Modular by design. Use only what you need.
• Multi-compiler support.
• Heckin’ fast.
• Lux developer tooling and semi-automated dependency management.
• Support for configuration files authored with TypeScript, JSON, YML, CJS and ESM.
• Support for CDNs like skypack and unpkg. See documentation on using remote sources or this example sandbox using skypack modules
• Customizable and extensible. Add new features. Swap our core components with your own.

Requirements

• Node 16+
• yarn 1.22 or higher
• npm 8.3 or higher
• Windows users must run bud.js under the Windows Subsystem for Linux.
