When should I use Rollup instead of Webpack?

Rollup is ideal for libraries and smaller projects due to its tree-shaking capabilities, while Webpack is better for larger applications.

What do you mean by tree-shaking?

Tree-shaking is a feature that eliminates unused code from your final bundle, making it smaller and more efficient.

Are there any specific scenarios where Rollup outperforms Webpack?

Yes, if you're building a library that will be consumed by other projects, Rollup's output is often more optimized.

Can I use both Rollup and Webpack in the same project?

Yes, you can use both, but it's usually best to stick with one for simplicity unless you have specific needs.
