Minified Javascript Runtime with dependencies included?

[Jarred Naicker]

I currently make use of the npm package antlr4 in a node js project, with antlr4 parsers running in a web-worker, this works fine, however the npm package has its own dependencies such as:

"buffer": "github:jspm/nodelib...@0.1.1",
"fs": "github:jspm/nodel...@0.1.2",
"process": "github:jspm/nodelibs...@0.1.2"

The above dependencies have their own package dependencies and so forth. Performance on the web is crucial and I am trying to keep dependencies at a minimum. The less scripts our users need to download the better. (Our web app will be run on both desktop and mobile devices in slow network enviroments.)

I then decided to remove the node package in favour of the javascript runtime I download from antlr.org. This has its own node module requirements which are not available in the web-worker thread.

Surely there is a minified version of the javascript runtime I can use that does not require outside dependencies?

We use Webpack to pull everything together into a single download.  I'm not sure you should expect much but the barest minimum javascript functionality to not have dependencies.  Using something like Webpack to bundle everything into a single downloadable *.js file should work well.
