It's so encouraging to see esbuild and swc grow in popularity, along with the lightweight dev build vs full production build approach. I made the switch from Parcel v1 to vitejs recently on some personal projects and seeing how fast it starts up and processes changes still has me feeling excited. I wonder how many other frontend tool would be good fits for being written in rust or go.

And how long before this approach becomes the de facto industry standard?

Hopefully within a year or two.

Most of the devs would use build higher level build tool like vite, create-react-app or custom build pipeline. Thus only small number of devs, who are directly involved in build process, need to make the change.
