Parsley Bundler is an open-source project forked from Parcel, designed as a zero-configuration web application bundler emphasizing speed and developer experience. It provides out-of-the-box support for JavaScript, CSS, HTML, and various file assets, automatically applying necessary transformations via tools like Babel, PostCSS, and PostHTML. Key features include multicore compilation, a filesystem cache for fast rebuilds, zero-configuration code splitting with dynamic `import()`, and built-in hot module replacement. Benchmarks from its README claimed significantly faster build times compared to Browserify and Webpack. The package's current and only released version is 0.0.2. Given its very low version number and the lack of updates since its initial release around 2017, the project appears to be abandoned, meaning there is no active release cadence or ongoing maintenance. Its main differentiator was its 'zero config' approach and performance at the time of its inception, mirroring Parcel's philosophy.

CLI
parsley index.html
Parsley Bundler is primarily a command-line interface tool. Its programmatic API, if any existed, was not documented or commonly used at its 0.0.2 version. Most interaction is via direct CLI commands.

Demonstrates how to install Parsley Bundler globally and use it to bundle a simple HTML file that references an external JavaScript file, launching a development server.

<html> <body> <script src="./index.js"></script> </body> </html> // index.js console.log('Hello from Parsley!'); document.body.innerHTML += '<h1>Hello from Parsley!</h1>'; # Terminal commands npm install -g parsley-bundler parsley index.html
parsley --version
