Library Highlight: Rolldown
While the Vite team is mostly known for, well, Vite, it's also been quietly developing Rolldown as a faster, Rust-based bundler.
And now that Vite itself uses Rolldown, the project will no doubt take a central role in the build tool ecosystem.

I really thought this would be the year Vite finally overtakes webpack to claim the spot of most-used build tools, but it looks like this might have to wait one more year.
Turbopack is also showing a lot of progress in terms of usage, no doubt benefiting from being bundled with Next.js. That being said, similar to Next.js its satisfaction ratio is quite worrying.
Rolldown on the other hand has gained satisfaction, and also comes first in terms of interest.
Finally, Bun is doing quite well across all categories, which is quite an achievement for such a new and ambitious project.
