Rspack is a Rust-based bundler compatible with webpack. 5-10x faster builds while maintaining webpack plugin and loader compatibility.
Reviewer scorecard
“Too expensive for what it offers. Plenty of open-source alternatives.”
“webpack compatibility with Rust speed. The migration path from webpack is smoother than switching to Vite or Turbopack.”
“Solid execution. Does what it promises and the DX is clean.”
“For webpack-heavy projects, Rspack provides the biggest speed improvement with the least migration effort.”
“Interesting concept but the execution isn't there yet. Give it 6 months.”
“Rust-based JS tooling replacing JavaScript tooling is the trend. Rspack, Biome, and SWC prove it works.”
