Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

This README reflects Webpack v2.x and v3.x. The Webpack v1.x documentation can be found here.

webpack is a bundler for modules. The main purpose is to bundle JavaScript files for usage in a browser, yet it is also capable of transforming, bundling, or packaging just about any resource or asset.

TL;DR

  • Bundles ES Modules, CommonJS and AMD modules (even combined).
  • Can create a single bundle or multiple chunks that are asynchronously loaded at runtime (to reduce initial loading time).
  • Dependencies are resolved during compilation, reducing the runtime size.
  • Loaders can preprocess files while compiling, e.g. TypeScript to JavaScript, Handlebars strings to compiled functions, images to Base64, etc.
  • Highly modular plugin system to do whatever else your application requires.

Get Started

Check out webpack's quick Get Started guide and the other guides.

Plugins

webpack has a rich plugin interface. Most of the features within webpack itself use this plugin interface. This makes webpack very flexible.

|Name|Status|Description| |:--:|:----:|:----------| |common-chunks-webpack-plugin|common-npm|Generates chunks of common modules shared between entry points and splits them into separate bundles (e.g vendor.bundle.js && app.bundle.js)| |extract-text-webpack-plugin|extract-npm|Extracts Text (CSS) from your bundles into a separate file (app.bundle.css)| |compression-webpack-plugin|compression-npm|Prepares compressed versions of assets to serve them with Content-Encoding| |i18n-webpack-plugin|i18n-npm|Adds i18n support to your bundles| |html-webpack-plugin|html-plugin-npm| Simplifies creation of HTML files (index.html) to serve your bundles|

Loaders

webpack enables use of loaders to preprocess files. This allows you to bundle any static resource way beyond JavaScript. You can easily write your own loaders using Node.js.

Loaders are activated by using loadername! prefixes in require() statements, or are automatically applied via regex from your webpack configuration.

Files

|Name|Status|Description| |:--:|:----:|:----------| |raw-loader|raw-npm|Loads raw content of a file (utf-8)| |val-loader|val-npm|Executes code as module and considers exports as JS code| |url-loader|url-npm|Works like the file loader, but can return a Data Url if the file is smaller than a limit| |file-loader|file-npm|Emits the file into the output folder and returns the (relative) url|

JSON

|Name|Status|Description| |:--:|:----:|:----------| ||json-npm|Loads a JSON file (included by default)| ||json5-npm|Loads and transpiles a JSON 5 file| ||cson-npm|Loads and transpiles a CSON file|

Transpiling

|Name|Status|Description| |:--:|:----:|:----------| |<script>|script-npm|Executes a JavaScript file once in global context (like in script tag), require()s are not parsed| ||babel-npm|Loads ES2015+ code and transpiles to ES5 using Babel| ||traceur-npm|Loads ES2015+ code and transpiles to ES5 using Traceur| ||type-npm|Loads TypeScript like JavaScript| |awesome-typescript-loader|awesome-typescript-npm|Awesome TypeScript loader for webpack| ||coffee-npm|Loads CoffeeScript like JavaScript|

Templating

|Name|Status|Description| |:--:|:----:|:----------| ||html-npm|Exports HTML as string, requires references to static resources| ||pug-npm|Loads Pug templates and returns a function| ||jade-npm|Loads Jade templates and returns a function| ||md-npm|Compiles Markdown to HTML| ||posthtml-npm|Loads and transforms a HTML file using PostHTML| ||hbs-npm| Compiles Handlebars to HTML|

Styling

|Name|Status|Description| |:--:|:----:|:----------| |<style>|style-npm|Add exports of a module as style to DOM| ||css-npm|Loads CSS file with resolved imports and returns CSS code| ||less-npm|Loads and compiles a LESS file| ||sass-npm|Loads and compiles a SASS/SCSS file| ||stylus-npm|Loads and compiles a Stylus file| ||postcss-npm|Loads and transforms a CSS/SSS file using PostCSS|

Linting & Testing

|Name|Status|Description| |:--:|:----:|:----------| ||mocha-npm|Tests with mocha (Browser/NodeJS)| ||eslint-npm|PreLoader for linting code using ESLint| ||jshint-npm|PreLoader for linting code using JSHint|

Frameworks

|Name|Status|Description| |:--:|:----:|:----------| ||vue-npm|Loads and compiles Vue Components| ||polymer-npm|Process HTML & CSS with preprocessor of choice and require() Web Components like first-class modules| ||angular-npm| Loads and compiles Angular 2 Components| ||riot-npm| Riot official webpack loader|

Performance

webpack uses async I/O and has multiple caching levels. This makes webpack fast and incredibly fast on incremental compilations.

Module Formats

webpack supports ES2015+, CommonJS and AMD modules out of the box. It performs clever static analysis on the AST of your code. It even has an evaluation engine to evaluate simple expressions. This allows you to support most existing libraries out of the box.

Code Splitting

webpack allows you to split your codebase into multiple chunks. Chunks are loaded asynchronously at runtime. This reduces the initial loading time.

Optimizations

webpack can do many optimizations to reduce the output size of your JavaScript by deduplicating frequently used modules, minifying, and giving you full control of what is loaded initially and what is loaded at runtime through code splitting. It can also make your code chunks cache friendly by using hashes.

We want contributing to webpack to be fun, enjoyable, and educational for anyone, and everyone. We have a vibrant ecosystem that spans beyond this single repo. We welcome you to check out any of the repositories in our organization or webpack-contrib organization which houses all of our loaders and plugins.

Contributions go far beyond pull requests and commits. Although we love giving you the opportunity to put your stamp on webpack, we also are thrilled to receive a variety of other contributions including:

  • Documentation updates, enhancements, designs, or bugfixes
  • Spelling or grammar fixes
  • README.md corrections or redesigns
  • Adding unit, or functional tests
  • Triaging GitHub issues -- especially determining whether an issue still persists or is reproducible.
  • Searching #webpack on twitter and helping someone else who needs help
  • Teaching others how to contribute to one of the many webpack's repos!
  • Blogging, speaking about, or creating tutorials about one of webpack's many features.
  • Helping others in our webpack gitter channel.

If you are worried or don't know where to start, you can always reach out to Sean Larkin (@TheLarkInn) on Twitter or simply submit an issue and a maintainer can help give you guidance!

We have also started a series on our Medium Publication called The Contributor's Guide to webpack. We welcome you to read it and post any questions or responses if you still need help.

Looking to speak about webpack? We'd love to review your talk abstract/CFP! You can email it to webpack [at] opencollective [dot] com and we can give pointers or tips!!!

If you create a loader or plugin, we would <3 for you to open source it, and put it on npm. We follow the x-loader, x-webpack-plugin naming convention.

We consider webpack to be a low-level tool used not only individually but also layered beneath other awesome tools. Because of it's flexibility, webpack isn't always the easiest entry-level solution, however we do believe it is the most powerful. That said, we're always looking for ways improve and simplify the tool without compromising functionality. If you have any ideas on ways to accomplish this, we're all ears!

If you're just getting started, take a look at our new docs and concepts page. This has a high level overview that is great for beginners!!

If you want to discuss something or just need help, here is our Gitter room where there are always individuals looking to help out!

If you are still having difficulty, we would love for you to post a question to StackOverflow with the webpack tag. It is much easier to answer questions that include your webpack.config.js and relevant files! So if you can provide them, we'd be extremely grateful (and more likely to help you find the answer!)

If you are twitter savvy you can tweet #webpack with your question and someone should be able to reach out and help also.

If you have discovered a 🐜 or have a feature suggestion, feel free to create an issue on Github.
