I usually use Parcel Bundler instead webpack as it handles all out of the box, this way I avoid loosing time in configs and get a better experience while getting a faster build and a bit lighter output.
esbuild is more suitable as a common tool for building our own toolchain. For web applications, Parcel does a good job, but many projects are not web applications, such as react-native and miniapps. They also need a whole toolchain. , But they have little to do with web, I use esbuild to make the toolchain faster and smooth.

Also IIRC Parcel adds several hundred mb of dependencies and isn't particularly fast. Downside of esbuild includes lack of HMR (or whatever they're calling it this month). I'm using Vite at the moment and am fairly happy with it I think.

What can ESBuild offer on the top of that?
