Awesome! Too bad Next.js will never profit from these incredible community efforts, because Vercel suffers from NIH.

Vite 8 is pretty incredible. We saw around an 8x improvement (4m -> 30s) in our prod build, and it was nearly a drop-in replacement. Congrats (and thank you!) to the Vite team!

I tried it and I saw more than 6x improvement in speed. It's on the top. Awesome tool 1

> Currently, the Oxc transformer does not support lowering native decorators as we are waiting for the specification to progress

Does Oxc also support TS runtime features like constructor parameter properties and enums? I seem to recall in the beta that they had enabled --erasableSyntaxOnly, presumably because Rolldown / Oxc didn't support doing a full transform.
