First look at Snowpack

This article provides a first look at Snowpack, a modern front-end build tool. The author details findings from initial experimentation, including the specific execution order of commands in snowpack.config.js, the use of mount scripts for server structure, the ::watch modifier, and how Snowpack's built-in Hot Module Reload (HMR) simplifies development compared to tools like Browsersync. A follow-up article on a specific Eleventy + Snowpack + Sass setup is promised.
