The native addon is a self-loading compressed carrier. First load verifies and materializes the original addon; subsequent loads reuse verified bytes. SWC_NATIVE_BINDING_CACHE selects the default user cache (unset/empty), temporary materialization (0), or an absolute custom root. See the carrier guide for filesystem behavior and the supported-target boundary.
The registration descriptor and constructor contract in src/legacy.rs follow the public N-API NAPI_MODULE_X interface in Node.js v10.0.0's src/node_api.h. The following Node.js attribution is retained for that interface adaptation. No implementation from SWC PR #12000 or the napi-rs compression PoC is used.

Babel is a widely-used JavaScript compiler that allows you to use next-generation JavaScript, today. It can transpile ES6 and beyond into backwards compatible JavaScript and handle JSX for React applications. Babel is plugin-based and has a larger ecosystem, but it is generally slower than SWC.
The TypeScript compiler is used to transpile TypeScript code to JavaScript. It provides type checking and the latest ECMAScript features. While TypeScript is powerful for type checking, it is not as fast as SWC for transpilation and does not include minification.
UglifyJS is a JavaScript minifier that can parse, minify, and compress JavaScript files. It is focused on minification and does not handle transpilation or JSX transformation, making it less versatile than SWC but still useful for reducing the size of JavaScript files.
Esbuild is an extremely fast JavaScript bundler and minifier. It can also transpile JavaScript and TypeScript code. Esbuild is known for its speed, which rivals that of SWC, and it has a simple API. However, it does not have as extensive a plugin ecosystem as Babel.
