Poi is a zero-config JavaScript application bundler built on top of webpack, designed to make developing and bundling web apps and npm libraries as simple as possible. It provides out-of-the-box support for JS, CSS, file assets, JSX, Vue, and more with minimal configuration.

Use cases

• bundle a javascript web application without writing webpack config
• scaffold a new react or vue project quickly
• serve a web app locally with hot reload during development
• build a production-ready minified bundle for deployment
• package an npm library with zero build configuration
• use css modules and postcss out of the box

When to choose

• you are maintaining a legacy project already built with Poi
• you want a webpack-based bundler with zero configuration
• you need out-of-the-box support for Vue, React, Preact, or Svelte

When to avoid

• starting any new project - Poi is deprecated and the author recommends migrating to Vite
• you need active maintenance, security updates, or community support
• you want the fastest modern dev server and HMR experience
