Bundling - CI/CD Glossary Definition

Bundling combines many source modules and their dependencies into a smaller number of output files, resolving imports at build time so a browser or runtime fetches fewer files.

Tools

Webpack, Rollup, esbuild, and Vite are bundlers. Bundling is usually the heaviest part of a frontend CI build and a prime caching target.
