Came here to puff about "yet another bundler". Then read all of the docs in 15 minutes and realized that I might like this. Then I used it and I know that I'll keep using it, unless there are any showstoppers. Great job, Devon!

TY·435-point thread·

It should be noted that Parcel was created in house at Adobe and then open sourced. I think it's always nice to call out the contributions certain corps are making to the OSS world.
