That’s not the biggest problem of esbuild. Esbuild has poor support for code splitting (it’s the first priority on their roadmap[1]) and limited plugin interface which makes it a poor choice for complex projects. These are the reasons that Vite for instance can’t use esbuild for production builds.

While I haven’t tried Mako, it seems to have support for advanced code splitting[2]. No idea how powerful its plugin system is.
