## Description

Splittable is a build-time utility designed to transform JavaScript source code into optimized production assets. It functions as a module bundler that maps dependency relationships to combine multiple source files into a unified output, ensuring compatibility across web browsers.

The tool distinguishes itself through automated code splitting and dependency analysis, which divide applications into smaller, independent chunks. By identifying shared logic across entry points and isolating common modules, it prevents code duplication and enables asynchronous loading of application logic on demand.

The build process incorporates static analysis to perform tree shaking and dead code elimination, removing unreachable paths to reduce the final footprint. These optimization techniques are complemented by minification processes that compress files and shorten identifiers to minimize bandwidth usage and improve initial load times.
