Rollup.js Module Bundler

Rollup is a highly optimized JavaScript module bundler that compiles small pieces of code into larger, more complex libraries or applications. It primarily leverages the standardized ES module format (ESM) for code, enabling advanced optimizations like tree-shaking to produce exceptionally small and efficient bundles. Rollup's current stable version is `4.60.2`, with frequent minor and patch releases (often weekly or bi-weekly) addressing bugs and adding features, while major versions introduce significant changes. Unlike bundlers focused on web applications, Rollup excels at bundling libraries and frameworks, offering a lean core with a powerful, flexible plugin API to handle various build scenarios, including CommonJS, AMD, UMD, and ES module outputs for different environments.
