I don't work in web, and possibly live under a rock. I'm a little confused around what bundlers actually do?

I'd sort of assumed it was a typescript build thing before, but Mako's page gives me enough info to make me realise I'm wrong, but seems to assume people are working with some base knowledge I don't have.

Any pointers to information of exactly what bundlers do? The emphasis on speed makes it sound like it's doing a whole bunch of stuff, what are the bottlenecks? Package version resolution?
