[FEAT] Disable minify

[pcfreak30]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I have recently discovered a vite configuration issue that I fixed that prevented sourcemaps for refine core from working (I have had a lot of issues before then). However, even with this, is seems at-least 1 code path while debugging skipped an if statement based on the if for no reason at all.

I am requesting the project consider disabling minify in builds so that pages can properly be debugged without needing to jump through hoops as building locally, creating a patch and use pnpm or patch-package is honestly a last resort type of PITA. This to be clear, is so debugging can happen without sourcemaps since I have found they are not always perfect.

Additionally if minify is really considered valuable for a reason I don't need or don't agree with, create a new package export on packages for a different variation.

As I see it minify optimization should be the job of a bundler and npm code should not be pre-minified. It has been a pet peeve of mind as well when i come across this.

Hey @pcfreak30 thanks for the issue, we've discussed not pre minifying and it could be a good idea. We need to check if it will have any disadvantages and/or side-effects.

Hey @pcfreak30, thank you for the issue. We'll disable the minification and also update our build process to export individual files instead of bundling them into a single file. This will also resolve some issues we're having with Material UI imports. At least they will be easier to handle or avoid on user side.

I cannot share an exact date for this update but soon we'll share our roadmap for the next major improvements in Refine; they will be non-breaking and will be released gradually rather than packing it in a single major release. Thanks again for your interest and patience 🙏
