Move to unbundled development to compete with Snowpack/Vite

[santiagopuentep]

Snowpack and Vite build tools seem blow the competition out of the water with their impressive features and speed. If Meteor wants to compete in the long run, I think it's critical that it changes the build system to something way more modern.

Even with the hot module replacement improvements, in Windows especially, it takes a long time to startup, build and refresh in many cases. This makes it extremely tempting to move to a different build system. I think the Meteor team is spending time in old technologies that will probably die in a not too distant future this case.

SvelteKit (demo video) is promising amazing features too, built on top of Vite (they replaced Snowpack with it).

Are there any plans like these to stay on top of the competition? We are investing heavily on Meteor with a huge project, but those build systems look too far ahead already, Meteor's build times kill our productivity.
