SWC is a Rust-based JavaScript/TypeScript compiler that's 20x faster than Babel. Used by Next.js, Deno, and Parcel as their compilation layer.
Reviewer scorecard
“Hot reload, custom rendering engine, and Dart is surprisingly pleasant. Best for custom UI that needs pixel-perfect cross-platform.”
“20x faster than Babel with full compatibility. Used by Next.js which validates production readiness.”
“Dart limits the developer pool. React Native with TypeScript/JavaScript has a much larger talent market.”
“Babel is effectively replaced. SWC's speed improvement is dramatic and the compatibility is excellent.”
“Google's commitment level is uncertain given their track record. React Native has more ecosystem momentum.”
“SWC is the invisible engine powering modern JS tooling. Rust compilation speed enables new tool architectures.”
