Introducing Snowpack v2.13 - The DX Update. This entire release focused on developer quality-of-life with new features to simplify config, update error logging, and remove all unnecessary friction from your dev environment. It's genuinely one of my favorite releases so far, so I hope you enjoy an even better dev experience with Snowpack.

-- @FredKSchott

Simplified CSA Templates + Fast Refresh Improvements

All of our Create Snowpack App (CSA) templates have been improved this week, but the React & Preact templates got the biggest upgrades. They both sport a new design with a basic counter, perfect for testing that Fast Refresh is working (change the file, and see that the counter doesn't lose state). Behind the scenes, both Fast Refresh plugins have been updated to no longer require Babel externally, which means you can take advantage of our faster, built-in esbuild-powered pipeline.

• 55bbc83 - add example usage of fast refresh to react/preact templates (#1188)
• d69dbfe - refactor react-refresh plugin, babel user-dependency no longer needed (#1178)
• 2f19fd0 - update to latest prefresh/snowpack plugin
• 54fadca - CSA - move config back into templates, out of app-scripts-* packages (#1137)

Automatic "New Dependency" Handling

Tired of having to use that dumb --reload flag? We were too! Snowpack now automatically re-installs dependencies when a new import is added. This feature keeps your work flowing with fewer unnecessary interruptions.

• 7593243 - Re-implement dev dependency automatic handling (#1161)

Automatic CJS "namedExport" Detection

Node.js recently announced that they were attempting automatic CJS<>ESM named export interop. Not to be outdone, we announced that we'd do the same :) This feature means no more manual namedExport entries needed for most packages. Instead, Snowpack will attempt to automatically scan CJS packages for exports.

Snowpack uses the exact same internal lexer as Node.js to implement this, so expect to see the same results as Node.js v14 when you import a CJS npm package in ESM. However, this is a new idea that may still have some rough edges. If you see mixed results, remember that you can still use a manual "namedExports" config entry to use our more powerful runtime CJS detection.

• 00feade - cjs auto-detection on by default (#1163)

Logging/Debugging Improvements

Snowpack v2.12 added our first ever Error Overlays. Snowpack v2.13 improves on that work with a full suite of improvements to logging, log formatting, and making sure that all reported errors contain relevant info. Our favorite subtle-but-great feature: Multiple "File Changed..." logs in a row are now counted and collapsed, giving you a cleaner dev console overall.

• 93e3478 - reduce verbose file changed events in the logs (#1190)
• f2279c8 - cleanup hmr error logging
• a809fcc - improve error handing (#1180)
• e59ae05 - add default favicon to dev server, if none exists (#1177)

Better Sourcemap Support

No matter what I try to do to stop you, y'all keep improving our source map support! This release featured work by @pkaminski to add compose multiple source maps together, allowing for source maps in multi-step build pipelines. We have more improvements to add inside of Snowpack to really tighten this story up, but this is a huge step in the right direction 👍

• d8131c2 - Allow plugins that transform code to return source maps, and compose them together. (#1048) @pkaminski
• 5aef32a - fix source map stripping issue (#1146)
• bcc1fbc - fix dependency sourcemap issue

Note: v2.12.0 was skipped. v2.12.1 is the first official v2.12 release!

🆕 Live Error Overlays

Snowpack v2.12 now includes Live Error Overlays to surface build & runtime errors immediately during development. No more searching around for what exactly went wrong. Instead, you'll see every problem surfaced right in the application itself.

To see the new error overlays, just upgrade Snowpack in your project and run snowpack dev!

A huge thanks to the Next.js team for the beautiful “react-dev-overlay” package template that these overlays are based on!

• Twitter sneak preview from last week: https://twitter.com/pikapkg/status/1308099900538679297
• e373499 - add runtime error overlay reporting (#1142)
• 6ed5359 - Advanced HMR Error Handling (2 of 2: Error Overlay) (#1073)

New Vue 3.0 templates (incl. TypeScript!)

Vue 3.0 was released last week! To celebrate, we updated our Vue + Snowpack template to the latest version AND launched a new template for building Vue sites with TypeScript. Run create-snowpack-app with the new @snowpack/app-template-vue-typescript template to see it in action.

• 2a94ff1 - Feature/app-template-vue-typescript (#1088) @Akimyou
• 3a7b097 - updating to vue 3.0.0 @melissamcewen
• 4329d56 - remove bad vue template compiler option (#1101) @coolzjy

A new look for the docs site!

Exploring SSR

We've been exploring a better Server-Side Rendering (SSR) support story for Snowpack (in collaboration with members of the Svelte community) and this release marks the first features & improvements merged into Snowpack for SSR!

This is still an experimental area for us, but it's one we're really excited about investing in. More to come over the next several releases!

See "Improvements / Bugfixes" below for a full list of relevant changes in this release:

⭐ NEW: Parallelized Builds

#808 - The build command now runs multiple builds in parallel, one job for every core available on your machine. Snowpack build plugins can take advantage of this new support by offloading computationally consuming work to child processes, allowing Node.js to parallelize the work. Several of our plugins already support this:

• @snowpack/plugin-build-script: Builds each file by running a CLI command in a separate thread.
• @snowpack/plugin-babel: Spins up a pool of workers to run multiple Babel builds in parallel.
• esbuild: Our default JSX/TypeScript builder is built with Go, and supports parallel builds.

The result? ~2x faster builds when parallel-enabled plugins are used. If your plugins are not yet built to take advantage of this feature, there should be no impact on performance.

v2.6.2...v2.6.3

Small Fix

• handle node-fetch, whatwg-fetch Node polyfills (#547) 23289f4

Export Map Support (#539)

Snowpack now supports export maps! As of Node v12 (LTS) package authors have the chance to define an explicit set of file entrypoints inside of their package. Snowpack will now respect these export maps, and warn if you try to import a file outside of them. `import 'preact/some-private-package-file.js' will now throw an error to match Node.js behavior.

See Node's official documentation for more: https://nodejs.org/api/esm.html#esm_package_entry_points

Optimized Build Dependencies (#526)

As a part of your production build, Snowpack now scans your build output to optimize your dependencies. Previously, Snowpack would tree-shake by scanning your source code, which gave less accurate results. This new feature gives you an even better-optimized tree-shaking result, and fixes issues where your build pipeline actually adds/removes imports.

Add HTTPS/HTTP2 server (#422) 3266d9b

Snowpack now supports the snowpack dev --secure flag, which will run your dev server via HTTP2. This is much faster than HTTP/1.1 for unbundled applications like Snowpack's dev app.

HTTP/2 is powered by HTTPS, which requires a bit of additional setup for your dev environment to work properly. On your first run of Snowpack with the --secure flag, you'll be shown instructions to generate credentials to use for HTTPS.

v2.1.1...v2.2.0

Directory Import Resolution - import './routes';

Previously, we'd done a very lazy + '.js' to any import missing a file extension, which broke if the import was a directory and users were expecting node-style directory resolution to the directory's index.js file.

Now, we first check if it's a directory, in which case we add a slightly less lazy + '/index.js' instead.

Faster, Better Import Scanning

Previously, we'd powered our install import scanner with esbuild, which caused any non-standard JS to fail if esbuild didn't support it, blocking users from using Snowpack entirely (err: Parse Error).

Now, we have a general fallback scanner for any non-JS syntax. This is now an entirely static analysis of your source directory, meaning we were able to remove esbuild entirely. It's very, very fast now.

True http-proxy Support

See: #375, #373, #371

Our "proxy" build script was naively just making http requests to the proxied destination. This work now uses a real proxy server implementation to support more requests, and sets the stage for us to introduce better proxy configuration support for all the http-proxy library options.

** Psst... Save the date! Snowpack 2.0.0 is coming May 26th!**

🎉 Snowpack 2.0.0-RC.1

Thank you everyone who tried out the Snowpack v2.0 Beta! Thanks to you, we've been able to hone in on the final feature set & API for Snowpack v2. At this point we're feeling confident enough to tag our first release candidate (with an official 2.0.0 release scheduled for next week)!

We don't expect any big API changes going forward, so If you want to test Snowpack v2.0 readiness for your application (or framework/library, if you're an open source maintainer) there's never been a better time to start!

What's new?

Snowpack v2 was announced the other week as a next step for the bundle-free development movement that we'd helped kickstart back during the Snowpack v1.0 release. You can read our full announcement thread & story here.

Since that announcement, we've finalized our v2.0 feature set with a bunch of new features requested by you: Hot Module Replacement (HMR), built-in JSX/TS/TSX handling via esbuild, CSS/JSON/Asset imports, and an entire 3rd party plugin system for extending Snowpack are all now available.

We'll be teasing these new features & plugins over the next week, so follow us on Twitter to get an early preview of what's new as we get closer to next week's release. Until then we'll be working on documentation, code cleanup, and testing to prepare for a stable & solid release.

The Road to Snowpack v2.0

As it stands, v1.7 is our last planned v1.x release before v2.0.

The project has grown a ton over since our v1.0 release: 160+ PRs, 50+ contributors, and a collection of podcasts, blog posts, video tutorials and more. I'm overjoyed that this project has meant so much to so many. If you're reading this, thank you.

We've also learned a ton from you in the process: what works, what doesn't, and what's still confusing. It turns out, there's still a lot to get confused about. This will be our focus for v2.0: The fastest dev environment on the web should also be the easiest to use.

• Remove our npm coupling: Configuring Snowpack to re-run every npm install/uninstall/add/remove can be a pain. That's why Snowpack v2.0 will also be able to install and manage dependencies independently from npm/yarn. Learn more...
• No more React workarounds: By letting Snowpack fully manage & install your web_modules/ directory, we can make sure that every package installs correctly from the start. No more workarounds needed for React and others!
• A better dev environment: Today, Snowpack works with your favorite static dev server. This is an important goal for the project, but it's also a lot to ask a new user to set up. Starting in v2.0, Snowpack will ship a dev command that gives you a fully-configured dev environment, instantly. Learn more...
• Better defaults: We've kept around a lot of v1.0 behavior to prevent breaking changes, but new features launched since then make more sense as defaults. v2.0 will be a chance to enable some of our favorite features from v1.x (like --stat mode) by default.

If you're interested in getting involved and helping out, this is a great time to do so! We keep our Issue tracker extremely clean so that you can always find an issue that we're looking for help on.

v1.7.0 Release Notes

--env process.env support (author: @postspectacular)

Snowpack's process.env handling has gotten an upgrade and a new feature: you can now rewrite custom process.env properties in your dependencies via --env/"env" config support. This is essential if you find yourself working with a dependency that checks for a custom property like "process.env.MY_CUSTOM_KEY" that you'd like to provide.

A better babel plugin (author: @francislavoie)

Based on your user feedback, we've completely updated our Babel plugin to better support complex project layouts. It now supports:

• webModulesUrl - Rewrite your bare module imports to an absolute path (/web_modules/...), a relative path (../web_modules/...), or even an absolute, remote URL (https://static.yourdomain.com/web_modules/...).
• moduleResolution - Resolve relative imports using Node's resolution logic. Instead of just adding missing extensions, we'll now also resolve directory imports (/foo -> /foo/index.js).

JSX & TypeScript support for --include (author: @dangodev, @FredKSchott)

Our previous import scanner left TypeScript users, JSX users, and others stuck in a Catch-22: scanning your compiled code for new dependencies required a successful build, but creating a successful build required that new dependencies were already installed.

You can now use --include src/**/* to scan your actual source for the correct dependencies, even if you're using non-standard language features like TypeScript or JSX.

v1.5.0...v1.5.1

🆕 Custom install plugins (via Rollup)

You might encounter non-JS npm packages that can only run with additional parsing/processing. Svelte packages, for example, commonly include .svelte files that will require additional tooling to parse and install for the browser.

In these rare cases, you can now add custom Rollup plugins to your Snowpack config to handle these special files:

// snowpack.config.js
module.exports = {
  rollup: {
    plugins: [require('rollup-plugin-svelte')()]
  }
};

Thanks to @dangodev for identifying the problem, proposing the solution, and implementing the PR.

Major Change: Rename!

Major Change: Tree-shaking!

A HUGE thanks to @dangodev for this feature. When Snowpack is run with the --optimize flag it is able to analyze your application source code to detect exactly which dependency exports are used in your application. Anything unused is removed from the optimized dependency installation.

Major Change: --include (Automatic import detection)

Another great contribution from @dangodev. Tree-shaking wouldn't have been possible without the ability to detect your application imports automatically. Even without the tree-shaking component, being able to automatically detect which dependencies are needed gets rid of a ton of configuration in old versions.

Major Change: A new docs site!

Minor Changes

• Added UC Browser to default "browserlist" ignore string. UC Browser doesn't support ESM (yet) so this may result in a better-optimized default env target for --optimize.

I'll be promoting this more tomorrow (on Twitter, etc) and cleaning up the docs site tonight, but I wanted to get the actual release out there asap for anyone who wanted to try it out. Thanks for all your hard work everyone!

v0.6.0 was accidentally broken on publish, v0.6.1 is the next release after v0.5.3

New Features

• (Experimental) Non-JS static asset support! This support actually went out with v0.5.2, but with v0.6.0 we'll start to talk about it more. Please leave feedback on both config and developer experience!
• Monorepo support! Use @pika/web in a monorepo where dependencies may live a level or two above the current working directory.
• Babel as a production optimize step: In v0.5.0 we introduced running your deps through Babel. In v0.6.0 we've scaled that back to only run with the --optimize flag or the new explicit --babel flag. We recommend using pika install normally, and then running pika install --optimize before pushing to production.

v0.6.0...v0.6.1

Small Fixes

• Make sure that we're filtering directories out of glob patterns 0561f7a
• Skip sourcemap generation if optimize is set to false 9adf3f0

v0.5.2...v0.5.3

• Small fix to incorrect browserlist default 1d9ffab
• Babel Plugin: Add missing docs for the dir option 0edfdd4 fa374ab

v0.5.0...v0.5.1

• Small fix to incorrect repository URL 7ea605a

v0.4.3...v0.4.4

Patches & Fixes:

• Fix an issue where any non-ESM package could fail your entire installation.
• Made output more clear about which dependencies were converted and which were not.

NEW: When used with an install whitelist:

NEW: When used without an install whitelist:

Thanks to the hard work of our new contributor @Birch-san, we now have Deep Package Support (aka installing specific files from within a package)! See this new code snippet in the README:

  "dependencies": { "htm": "^1.0.0", "preact": "^8.0.0", /* ... */ },
  "@pika/web": {
    "webDependencies": [
      "htm",
      "preact",
      "preact/hooks", // A package within a package
      "unistore/full/preact.es.js" // An ESM file within a package
    ]
  },

This does involve a small breaking change for anyone who was using a scoped package: We had previously reformatted scoped package names to replace the / with --. This gave us a flat web_modules directory, but the feedback was almost universally "wtf why?". In v0.4.0, scoped package names are now installed untouched:

 preact -> web_modules/preact.js
-@pika/fetch -> web_modules/@pika--fetch.js
+@pika/fetch -> web_modules/@pika/fetch.js
 preact/hooks -> web_modules/preact/hooks.js
 unistore/full/preact.es.js -> web_modules/unistore/full/preact.es.js

Finally, another big thanks to @Birch-san for his thoughtful work on this release along with anyone who contributed the Issues, PRs, or our new Spectrum community.
