To implement robust mitigations across Geomys, I did a survey of open source project compromises in 2024/2025.

Three root causes dominate: phishing, control handoff, and unsafe GitHub Actions triggers. All three can be systematically avoided.

Jiti is now bundled with Rspack/SWC— smaller bundle size & faster.

Since Rsbuild relies on Jiti for config loading, this also benefits our users. 🥳

Freshly merged: Next.js with custom Rspack binding unlocks 10%+ faster builds. Performance will keep improving as more code is ported to Rust.

feat: next-rspack-binding by SyMind · Pull Request #82811 · vercel/next.js

Added a new rspack directory as an independent Rust and pnpm workspace, dedicated to building Next.js Rspack bindings. It shares code with Turbopack through the next-taskless crate.

Rslib v0.13.3 is ~100ms faster from a tiny change:

Swapping import "typescript" with require('typescript').

It skips Node's cjs-module-lexer overhead. 😅

We should make this

Tried out Rslib with tsgo… my package builds got 2.5x faster 🔥

Now I work with tsgo locally, but CI runs on TypeScript 5.x — more stable that way.

Nice try! We'll check out this playground and see if we can bring more out-of-the-box RSC support to Rspack/Rsbuild. And if you bump into anything, just let us know 😄

This is a collection of @rspack.dev and RSBuild plugins rolled up into a single rsbuild plugin to enable running of @reactrouter.com's RSC mode in RSBuild.

It supports
- `import with { env: "react-server" }`
- `use client`
- `use server`

It needs
- code splitting
- action encryption
- css handling

In the next release, Rspack ships advanced tree-shaking for dynamic imports via member expression analysis.

We've also contributed this optimization to webpack — pushing the ecosystem forward. 🚀

Great benchmark! We're continuously optimizing Rspack for faster builds and smaller bundle sizes.

It's worth noting that webpack/Rspack produce larger bundles in this case due to different handling of dynamic require() in moment.js, see github.com/filipsobol/b...

Rspack 1.5 will support the "using" declaration.

This enables the explicit resource management feature in ECMAScript, making resource cleanup more straightforward ✨
