Did you have a look at TS-belt for this change? They claim to be much faster and support tree-shaking. https://mobily.github.io/ts-belt/

[bd82]

Thanks @mattbishop I was not aware of ts-belt
Both libraries support tree-shaking so the differences would be around performance and active / on-going maintenance.

I will probably attempt to finish the migration to remeda as I am pleased with what I am seeing so far
and it seems to be more actively developed.

If there are any performance regressions I will consider other options.

Potential advantage of ts-belt may be to speed up parser init time, but that may be considered as a separate future (low priority) track.

While the size has decreased by ~20KB the performance of lexer/parser init time has degraded severely.

libraryTarget = ES2015 + ESM + lodash-es will reduce chevrotain.min.js to approx 135Kb.
So this is no longer needed
