What compiler Tanstack Start uses under the hood?
Hey, based on my shallow research, it seems that it uses vite-plugin/react, which uses
Babel is very slow AFAIK. Why use that and not the react-swc plugin instead, if you don't have any special babel plugins in the pipeline, it seems.
react-router v7 uses babel for sure as they have some of the internal plugins I think, which is super sad, but for Tanstack I haven't see direct use of the babel capabilities, so react-swc might be good enough to be just drop in replacement with a boost in performance?
In case you still see great performance and better build performance than Next.js, then I'm fine with Babel, but I'm not sure it will be as good when Turbopack is fully GA for both dev and production builds. I'm surprised SWC isn't a default thing here.
