Welcome to the Rollup wiki!

If you're new to Rollup, here's what you need to know:

• Rollup is a JavaScript module bundler. It takes a file - let's call it main.js, and recursively imports its dependencies until your whole library or application is contained in a single file
• unlike other bundlers (such as Browserify or Webpack), Rollup only includes the code you actually need. In many cases, the resulting bundle is a fraction of the size. Even in the worst case scenario it will still be smaller than bundles generated by other tools
• it does this by embracing ES6 modules
• the easiest way to use it is via the [command line](Command Line Interface)...
• ...but you can also use the JavaScript API...
• ...or a plugin for your [build tool](Build tools) of choice

To get up and running quickly, follow the Quickstart Tutorial.
