Webpack v4 Getting Started

to run this repo webpack v4 in your local,

On Command line

  1. Clone this repo:
    git clone https://github.com/nagarakesh4/webpack-v4-gettingstarted.git
  1. Install webpack v4 modules from package.json:
    npm install

you may use yarn as well

  1. To run development mode:
    npm run dev

under ./dist/main.js you can verify the babel converted js file as unminfied

  1. To run production mode:
    npm run build

under ./dist/main.js you can verify the babel converted js file as minified

Key points:

  1. No need to maintain a separate config.js file to store entry point (input file and output file), instead webpack just looks for ./src/index.js

  2. Development and production mode can be easily set with --mode flag (look in package.json file), and for production mode, TreeShaking, ScopeHoisting and Minification are out of box (and no need of UglifyJS plugin etc...,)
