Proposed changes:

@wordpress/dependency-extraction-webpack-plugin has added the ability to detect a magic /* wp:polyfill */ comment and only add wp-polyfill as a dependency if that is found. Since wp-polyfill is just a custom build of core-js, the intention is that babel-plugin-polyfill-corejs3 (maybe via @babel/preset-env) would be used and then a custom Babel plugin would replace the core-js imports with the magic comment.

This updates our Babel config to do just that, and removes the blanket addition of wp-polyfill via injectPolyfill or otherwise.

Effects

Removes unnecessary wp-polyfill from the following:

  • packages/explat
  • packages/forms block view.js
  • packages/jitm
  • packages/plugin-deactivation
  • All Jetpack block view.js except Map, Recurring Payments, Subscriptions, Story, Nextdoor, and Podcast Player.
  • packages/videopress divi-editor/index.js, player-bridge.js, and block view.js

Also it adds wp-polyfill as a dependency for a few things that were missing it before:

  • Boost's inline-liar.js
  • packages/connection scripts
  • packages/forms jetpack-forms-dashboard.js
  • Lots of mu-wpcom scripts:
    • block-inserter-modifications.js
    • newspack-blocks-blog-posts-editor.js
    • newspack-blocks-blog-posts-view.js
    • newspack-blocks-carousel-editor.js
    • tags-education.js
    • verbum-comments.js
    • wpcom-block-description-links.js
    • wpcom-block-editor-nux.js
    • wpcom-blocks-event-countdown-editor.js
    • wpcom-blocks-timeline-editor.js
    • wpcom-global-styles-editor.js
  • js-packages/react-data-sync-client
  • js-packages/svelte-data-sync-client

The following specifically weren't changed:

  • packages/search and packages/wordads still unconditionally include the dep, and also embed core-js directly.

Other information:

  • Have you written new tests for your changes, if applicable?
  • Have you checked the E2E test CI results, and verified that your changes do not break them?
  • Have you tested your changes on WordPress.com, if applicable (if so, you'll see a generated comment below with a script to run)?

Jetpack product discussion

Fixes #39452

Does this pull request change what data or activity we track or use?

Testing instructions:

  • Verify that using Jetpack blocks other than the ones mentioned doesn't trigger wp-polyfill on the frontend anymore.
  • Other than that, 🤷. There are no real changes in the bundled code here, only the addition or removal of polyfills for older-but-still-supported browsers.

P.S. If building locally to test, you may want to delete any stray .cache/ directories first. Babel seems not to notice changes in the preset and so incorrectly reuses cache entries from older builds.

`@wordpress/dependency-extraction-webpack-plugin` has added the ability
to detect a magic `/* wp:polyfill */` comment and only add `wp-polyfill`
as a dependency if that is found. Since `wp-polyfill` is just a custom
build of `core-js`, the intention is that
`babel-plugin-polyfill-corejs3` (maybe via `@babel/preset-env`) would be
used and then a custom Babel plugin would replace the `core-js` imports
with the magic comment.

This updates our Babel config to do just that, and removes the blanket
addition of `wp-polyfill` via `injectPolyfill` or otherwise.

Are you an Automattician? Please test your changes on all WordPress.com environments to help mitigate accidental explosions.

  • To test on WoA, go to the Plugins menu on a WordPress.com Simple site. Click on the "Upload" button and follow the upgrade flow to be able to upload, install, and activate the Jetpack Beta plugin. Once the plugin is active, go to Jetpack > Jetpack Beta, select your plugin, and enable the add/dependency-extraction-auto-polyfill branch.

    • For jetpack-mu-wpcom changes, also add define( 'JETPACK_MU_WPCOM_LOAD_VIA_BETA_PLUGIN', true ); to your wp-config.php file.
  • To test on Simple, run the following command on your sandbox:

    bin/jetpack-downloader test jetpack add/dependency-extraction-auto-polyfill
    
    bin/jetpack-downloader test jetpack-mu-wpcom-plugin add/dependency-extraction-auto-polyfill
    

Interested in more tips and information?

  • In your local development environment, use the jetpack rsync command to sync your changes to a WoA dev blog.
  • Read more about our development workflow here: PCYsg-eg0-p2
  • Figure out when your changes will be shipped to customers here: PCYsg-eg5-p2

Amazing!

verbum-comments.js

This one is a bummer, because it'll force wp-polyfill to frontend of many sites on each post. cc @automattic/vertex in case anything could be done about it. Not a blocker at all for this PR.

verbum-comments.js

@simison I believe verbum-comments.js is loaded dynamically, not statically enqueued, so this shouldn't be a problem. The polyfills should simply be another dependency that gets lazily loaded immediately before verbum-comments.js itself.

If we want Verbum not to check for polyfills, it looks like it's already set up so we would just have to change

presets: [ [ '@automattic/jetpack-webpack-config/babel/preset' ] ],

to do [ '@automattic/jetpack-webpack-config/babel/preset', { autoWpPolyfill: false } ] instead. Looking back at #34993 it wasn't clear to me whether dropping injectPolyfill in 69dd842 was intentional or accidental.

P.S. wp-polyfill is being triggered for Verbum because of use of URLSearchParams to polyfill has, delete, and size. Which may not even be used, I think the polyfiller does it "just in case" when it sees URLSearchParams being used at all instead of trying to do a deep static analysis. Or even just URL in case its .searchParams gets used somewhere.
