I wanted to point out that it should be “Goodbye, Webpack. Hello, Turbopack!” since you’re addressing something, so a comma is needed before the direct address. 😉
doesn’t a sentence require a verb ……………
No. (<— complete sentence)
that is indeed a very important detail. good that you pointed it out.
One more reason to go buildless.
I’ve just recently migrated from the now-deprecated snowpack to Vite… now it’s Turbopack, next year… Hate it.
John, “goodbye” does contain a verb. It’s a contraction of “God be with you.”
