README

NOTE: This is Parcel v3 (currently in alpha). For v2, see the v2 branch.

Parcel is a batteries-included build tool for the web. It combines a great out-of-the-box development experience with a scalable architecture that can take your project from just getting started to massive production application.

 Features

- 😍 Batteries included – Parcel supports many languages and file types out of the box, from web technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, to assets like images, fonts, videos, and more. It has a built-in dev server with hot reloading, beautiful error diagnostics, and much more. No configuration needed!
- ⚡️ Lightning fast – Parcel is written in Rust for native performance, taking advantage of all of the cores on your machine. Extend it with native plugins written in Rust, Go, Swift, or any language that supports the C ABI.
- 🚀 Automatic production optimization – Parcel optimizes your whole app for production automatically. This includes tree-shaking and minifying your JavaScript, CSS, and HTML, resizing and optimizing images, content hashing, automatic code splitting, and much more.
- 🎯 Ship for any target – Parcel automatically transforms your code for your target environments. From modern and legacy browser support, to zero config JSX and TypeScript compilation, Parcel makes it easy to build for any target – or many!
- 🌍 Scalable – Parcel requires zero configuration to get started. But as your application grows and your build requirements become more complex, it's possible to extend Parcel in just about every way. A simple configuration format and powerful native and JavaScript plugin system means Parcel can support projects of any size or complexity.
