Maybe I am misunderstanding but this feels like it is provided via the `--bundle` flag in esbuild [1].

I have also noticed that it does not seem to have the auto-reload part [2]. It does however have a server so that is at least something (e.g., `--servedir=dist`). Though that seems like a very new development.

Thanks. I meant that `tsc` has no `--bundle` flag
