esbuild-minifier-webpack-plugin

A webpack plugin that replaces the default minifier (TerserWebpackPlugin) with esbuild for faster JavaScript and CSS minification. Current stable version is 1.2.11, released infrequently. Key differentiator: significantly faster minification times compared to traditional minifiers, especially for large bundles. Integrates seamlessly into existing webpack configurations with minimal setup. Note that esbuild's minification may produce slightly larger output than Terser in some cases, and does not support all Terser options (e.g., mangling exceptions).
