Laravel Mix SWC

Integrate SWC JavaScript compiler with Laravel Mix.

We know how far Rust can be in terms of performance, this projects brings all its power for JavaScript compiling (doing all the job that Babel does but much faster!).

Check its benchmarks here for more reference.

Getting started

Installing this in your Laravel project is very simple, run this command:

yarn add -D laravel-mix-swc
# or
npm i --dev laravel-mix-swc

And in your webpack.mix.js file in the root of your project add the following:

// At the very top of your file:
require("laravel-mix-swc");

// And replace mix.ts(), mix.js() or mix.babel() with .swc():
mix.swc("resources/js/app.js", "public/js")

Configuration

To configure SWC you can send options as third parameter:

mix.swc("resources/js/app.js", "public/js", {
    jsc: {
        parser: {
            syntax: "ecmascript",
            jsx: false,
        }
    }
})

For more info check the official documentation of swc here.

Config tips

Some "presets" or lets call them like that, remember this is the default config: https://github.com/open-southeners/laravel-mix-swc/blob/e45a3f1b92a1130a1acda2de7801f1348df547b7/src/plugin.js#L6

TypeScript with JavaScript

{
    "test": ".*.ts$",
    "jsc": {
      "parser": {
        "syntax": "typescript"
      }
    }
}

JSX support

{
    "jsc": {
      "parser": {
        "jsx": true
      }
    }
}

Vue support

Very important that you've the decorators enabled, this also supports TypeScript but you can modify that.

{
    "test": ".*.ts$",
    "jsc": {
        "parser": {
            "syntax": "typescript",
            "jsx": false,
            "decorators": true,
            "dynamicImport": true,
            "exportDefaultFrom": true
        }
    }
}
