Performance

Some rollup plugins do expensive operations. During development, this matters a lot more than during a production build. It's recommended to always scope the usage of plugins using the include and/or exclude options available in most rollup plugins.

non-standard file types

The rollup build process assumes that any imported files are are meant to be compiled to JS, web dev server serves many different kinds of files to the browser. If you are transforming a non-standard filetype to JS, for example .json files, you need to instruct the server to handle it as a JS file:

const json = require('@rollup/plugin-json');
const { rollupAdapter } = require('@web/dev-server-rollup');

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    {
      name: 'json-mime-type-plugin',

      resolveMimeType(context) {
        if (context.path.endsWith('.json')) {
          return 'js';
        }
      },
    },

    rollupAdapter(json()),
  ],
};

Compatibility with rollup plugins

Since es-dev-server doesn't do any bundling, only the following lifecycle hooks from rollup are called:

options
buildStart
resolveId
load
transform

Plugins that use other lifecycle hooks are mostly build optimizations and are not interesting during development.

The following rollup plugins have been tested to work correctly:

The following rollup plugins don't work correctly at the moment:

@rollup/plugin-typescript. For compiling typescript we recommend @web/dev-server-esbuild
