Speedy Web Compiler
Rust-based platform for the Web
SWC is an extensible Rust-based platform for the next generation of fast developer tools. It's used by tools like Next.js, Parcel, and Deno, as well as companies like Vercel, ByteDance, Tencent, Shopify, and more.
SWC can be used for both compilation and bundling. For compilation, it takes JavaScript / TypeScript files using modern JavaScript features and outputs valid code that is supported by all major browsers.
Overview
# Download prebuilt binaries
npm i -D @swc/cli @swc/core
# Transpile JavaScript file and emit to stdout
npx swc ./file.js

Currently, the following binaries are provided: * Mac (Apple Silicon) * Mac (x64) * Linux (x86_64) * Linux (aarch64) * Linux (armv7) * Alpine Linux (also install @swc/core-linux-musl) * Android (aarch64) * Windows (win32-x64) * Windows (ia32)
