Does this work with reacts fancy new compiler that is meant to optimize away various hooks?

Why does the Nextjs version of React compiler require a babel plugin when the vite version doesn't need it? Next.js is on SWC, not sure why they need a babel plugin.

OXC Transformers are amazingly faster than Babel. I'm building a framework ( https://github.com/vmsp/flypath ) for web, iOS and Android native development that's fully backed by OXC and Vite. Instead of transforming styles using Babel like StyleX, I just use OXC. Instead of Metro (React Native's bundler), which also uses Babel, it's just Vite. It's still very early but it's plenty, plenty fast.
