esmoduleserve is a lightweight, shim HTTP development server designed for serving ES modules directly in the browser without requiring a bundling step. Currently at version 0.3.1, it focuses on providing a direct ES module development experience by rewriting import specifiers on-the-fly to precise, resolved paths. It implements a Node-like module resolution algorithm, prioritizing `"module"` or `"jsnext"` fields in `package.json` over `"main"`. This differentiates it from more comprehensive dev servers (e.g., Vite, Webpack dev server) that typically integrate bundling, transpilation, and hot module reloading, by offering a simpler, unbundled approach for native ES module workflows. Its release cadence is likely infrequent, as it serves a specific, focused niche for rapid development and testing of native ES modules.
