A bundler is a tool that helps to simplify the process of managing and organizing JavaScript modules. It allows developers to combine multiple separate JavaScript files into one bundle file, which can then be included in an HTML page. This makes it easier to manage code, as well as reducing the number of requests the browser needs to make when loading a page. Bundlers also provide features like minification, transpilation, and tree-shaking, making it easier for developers to write modern JavaScript code and optimize their applications for performance.

Rome, a Modern Toolchain!
Modern JavaScript projects come in many shapes: websites, web applications, desktop apps, mobile apps, and more. For most of them, the common denominator is the technical debt that comes from settings up tools: bundlers, testing suite, code analysis, documentation, etc. I want to present you Rome, a toolchain that aims to be a all-in-one toolchain for the web, with one single tool you can maintain the health of all your projects!

Parcel 2: the Automagical Bundler
Parcel 1 was created out of the frustration from configuring slow and hard to configure legacy bundlers like Webpack and in turn started a trend of zero-config tooling. Unfortunately, Parcel 1 had some major design flaws that led to the creation of Parcel 2, a ground-up rewrite of Parcel which aims to resolve those design flaws whilst also creating a bundler that can scale to the size of companies like Atlassian and Adobe and beyond. A new plugin system, bundler targets, optional configuration, stable caches, improved scope-hoisting, improved developer experience and better performance are just a few of the things we’ve been working on for the last 3 years.
In this talk I’ll glance over how Parcel works and talk about a couple of the largest and most exciting new features in Parcel 2.

Owning your Build-step – Owning your Code
Ever since JavaScript has become a language for writing applications, build tools and especially bundlers have been around. They solve the discrepancy between writing code that is easy to maintain and writing code that loads efficiently in a browser. But there are advantages to bundling JavaScript code that go well beyond the browser, from cloud functions to servers to command line tools.
RollupJS is special in that it was always designed from the ground up to be a general purpose bundler rather than a frontend specific tool. In this talk, we will have a look in what way other scenarios can profit from bundling. But more importantly, I will show you how RollupJS not only generates superior output in many situations, but how easy it is to tailor its output to custom requirements and non-standard scenarios. We will see how to patch up code, mock and replace dependencies, elegantly inject build information and control the chunk generation when code-splitting, all with a just few lines of code.
