Frontend Application Bundles

on YouTube ↗07m

" summary

A container format called fab packages a build as a zip with a webpack-generated server.js plus an immutable asset directory so a single artifact can deploy monolithically or be split apart. A Next.js project needs only one or two config lines, the existing build output is recompiled and zipped into a ~300k file, and the demo shows it running on Cloudflare Workers, a V8-only host that cannot run Node but serves from 200 locations.
