Babel could be dropped, and swc-loader could b directly used with lingui swc plugin. Should result in a massive performance improvement.

I have tried rspack example with builtin:swc-loader instead of babel-loader and I am facing error.
swc_core version is incompatible between @lingui/swc-plugin and @rspack/core.

• @linqui/swc-plugin@4.0.6 => swc_core 0.87.x
• @rspack/core@0.5.8 => swc_core 0.88.x ~ 0.89x

The error I am facing can be found here in this thread
We will need to upgrade swc_core version in range 0.88x ~ 0.89.x for @lingui/swc-plugin as mentioned here.

Thanks for taking into this. Yes, currently this is expected, the version with newer swc_core is not ready yet from our side.

I'm aligning version bump with NextJS releases (since it's a most popular framework used with lingui / swc) and NextJS is still hanging on the older version.

This one could be continued, swc-plugin released with newer version of swc-core https://github.com/lingui/swc-plugin/releases/tag/4.0.7
