What is Snowpack?
++ Snowpack is a lightning-fast frontend build tool, designed + for the modern web. + It is an alternative to heavier, more complex bundlers like + webpack or Parcel in your development workflow. Snowpack + leverages JavaScript's native module system (known + as + ESM) to avoid unnecessary work and stay fast no matter how big + your project grows. +
++ Once you try it, it's impossible to go back to anything else. +
