Cascade Added Large Dependencies - Bundle Bloat
Frontend bundle size increased dramatically after Cascade added new JavaScript dependencies. Page load time increased significantly, negatively impacting user experience and SEO metrics.
Cascade suggested useful libraries without considering bundle size impact or suggesting tree-shaking options.
Error Messages You Might See
Common Causes
- Cascade added monolithic library (e.g., lodash) instead of using small utility packages
- Added development dependencies to production bundle by mistake
- Cascade removed tree-shaking configuration or import optimization
- Multiple packages provide similar functionality (polyfills, utilities)
How to Fix It
Analyze bundle with webpack-bundle-analyzer or similar. Identify large dependencies. Consider lighter alternatives (e.g., lodash-es instead of lodash, date-fns instead of moment). Enable tree-shaking in bundler config. Use dynamic imports for code splitting. Lazy load non-critical dependencies.
