How to figure out the bundle size for my project/library?

[MohamadSalman11]

What steps should I follow and what factors should I consider to determine the optimal bundle size for my files?

To determine the optimal bundle size for your project or library, analyze your current bundle using tools like Webpack Bundle Analyzer or Source Map Explorer. These tools help you visualize what's included and identify large dependencies or unused code. Considering factors like the target audience's device capabilities and network conditions, smaller bundles are better for mobile users.

To determine your project's bundle size, use bundler-specific tools like webpack-bundle-analyzer (Webpack) or rollup-plugin-visualizer (Rollup) to generate visual reports, or source-map-explorer for generic analysis. Check compressed sizes via CLI with gzip-size and monitor dependencies with Bundlephobia. Enforce size limits using Webpack performance budgets or size-limit, and integrate checks into CI/CD pipelines. Always analyze production builds (minified/compressed) and account for all code-split chunks to identify optimization opportunities.
