WEBPACK alternative in Phoenix Framework?

Hello,
i am facing difficult using webpack when to install within phoenix framework 1.5.7 because the webpack is still version 4.x.x infact the webpack now in version 5.x.x, configuring that is more painfull, i hope there is another alternative package…

Every few months on one of the Elixir apps I maintain, Webpack would shit the bed and I’d have to spend a day fixing it. I’m not experienced enough with the front-end stack but I took a few hours to switch to Parcel and I’ve had ZERO issues since. This specific app has 2 large Elm components and Parcel handles Elm without any issues.

I have no idea what’s “better” than Parcel, but I was impressed with how simple it was to configure and how stable it’s been.

I wonder if you could write up/blog a quick guide Jesse? I think more and more people prefer simplicity these days, especially when it comes to JS and so could prove helpful to a lot of people (and maybe even convince the Phoenix team to look into it) :blush:

Please also keep us posted on how you get on @dbernheisel! :smiley:
