What is tree shaking and how does it work?

Read Original

This article explains the concept of tree shaking in JavaScript, a method for optimizing code bundles by eliminating unused modules. It details why ES6 static modules are required for this process, contrasts it with dynamic CommonJS modules, and provides a practical code example showing how tools like webpack can reduce bundle size by including only imported and used functions.
