Webpack has found itself as a quintessential piece of building any high performance, scalable web application. But how do you use it? As a webpack maintainer we have strived to provide great documentation, learning, and tutorials. But where do we go from there? I’m going to show you everything from the core concepts, all the way up to writing custom loaders, plugins, and understanding even how to contribute back to the organization!
Class is in session, its time for webpack academy!
Contents
- We will understand why webpack exists, why you should use it to build your web applications, and how to leverage webpack as a key piece of your front-end or NodeJS Build Architecture. We’ll cover the “Core Concepts”, understand how to organize and compose webpack’s capabilities, and learn how to leverage webpack to perform high-performance front-end techniques like code-splitting, long-term caching, as well as writing custom loaders and plugins!
- You’ll understand not only how webpack works, but walk away with understanding JavaScript modules, how they relate to High Performance web applications, and the confidence to understand and make front-end architecture decisions that are right for your next project.
- Customize webpack to integration with your existing workflow and architectures
