Parcel creates two .js files

[jbonigomes]

When running 'parcel index.html', where my 'index.html' imports a single .js file, Parcel's output to the dist folder contains two .js files, one imported in the header section and the other at the end of the body. Is there a way to get Parcel to generate a single .js file? Same goes for .css...

@jbonigomes parcel build index.html

Thanks for reaching out, unfortunately the build command yields the same result (two .js and two .css files).

Same issue here.

Same issue

the problem is relevant. The first file is compiled in its original form, the second with assembly changes

I have this as well, and it's a problem for me. Is there a way to either prevent the second one from getting built, or to name the two differently so we can distinguish them at a glance? (I'm using parcel-namer-custom, but there's no way to handle the two outputs as far as I can tell.)

add a parameter to build script --no-scope-hoist

Parcel automatically creates two scripts for differential serving via module/nomodule: https://parceljs.org/blog/rc0/#differential-bundling

If you set a browserslist config that is new enough that you don't support any old browsers (so you specify browsers with module support), then there will also be only one JS bundle.
