Module Federation Optimization
Since experimenting with module federation at @sanity.io , we've teamed up with the core maintainers, @gioboa.bsky.social and with the help of the @e18e.dev tooling managed to cut the Module Federation Vite plugin's dependency footprint from 72 → 18. 🎉
Collaborative work with @sanity.io has led to significant optimizations in the Module Federation Vite plugin, greatly reducing its dependency footprint.

Vite has seen a remarkable 4x increase in downloads over the past six months, showcasing its growing popularity and the shift towards more efficient build tools in the npm ecosystem.

Looks like one of my libs is more than 3M downloads/month now on NPM. Crazy!
A developer celebrated a significant milestone with their library achieving over 3 million downloads per month on NPM, emphasizing the impact of certain libraries in the community.
