I think generating types might also have been a blocker but I don't recall exactly on that... my view of the options for library authors, otherwise, is essentially this:

Thanks! I realize my complaint above was vague, and no pressure to address this, but just in case it's helpful: the most recent issue that blocked me from using Vite's (current) library mode was related to sourcemaps:

github.com/vitejs/vite/...

I didn't realize `deno bundle` existed! That's very interesting option, thanks, I'll need to try this out. :)

Node.js v20+ test runner could replace the unit testing dependency tree, too:

nodejs.org/api/test.html

Vite+ (source-available, free for OSS) would presumably do all of that in one dependency? Though I haven't found Vite (have not tried Vite+) to be as good for bundling libraries as for building applications, so far.

Currently I'm using: biome, ava, c8, microbundle, and typescript. But even that short list gets a pretty regular stream of small updates and dependabot 'vulnerabilities' requiring updates across various repositories.

Amtrak might be really nice for this! Not sure if a loaner bike case would change the math, but my case (EVOC) is otherwise just sitting in a Gowanus CubeSmart.

Please attend my SIGGRAPH talk, “Advanced in realtime rendering from the 1980s”.

Support for both formats in KTX2Loader likely coming in three.js r180.

There's currently a (small) missing piece on the three.js WebGPURenderer side to use spark.js textures efficiently — details in github.com/mrdoob/three....

This creates new options to consider when generating textures on the fly, as well, where GPU texture compression would not have been an option before.

(Note: Spark.js is free for non-commercial use, with a very fair one-time fee for indie and larger applications).

spark.js wraps a subset of these codecs with a simple and lightweight API. Making it easy to use modern image formats for storage and delivery and transcode them at runtime to more efficient GPU formats. This is literally free bandwidth!
