Webpack Tutorial: Understanding How it Works

Webpack Tutorial: Understanding How it Works

 

This Webpack tutorial is my attempt to document what I learnt and is the blog I wish I’d found when I first started my Webpack journey, all those months ago.

When I first started working at ag-Grid (which is a great place to work!) I had to ramp up on many technologies and frameworks that I hadn’t used before. One of these was Webpack— a powerful bundler used in many applications & frameworks.

We here at ag-Grid use Webpack to bundle our own products, as well as using it with some of our framework examples. Although there are alternatives to Webpack, it is still very popular and with version 2.2 recently released I believe it will remain so for quite a while yet.

Introduction to Webpack Tutorial

Webpack is a module bundler. It takes disparate dependencies, creates modules for them and bundles the entire network up into manageable output files. This is especially useful for Single Page Applications (SPAs), which is the defacto standard for Web Applications today.

All code for the blog can be found at the Webpack Tutorial: Understanding How it Works repository on GitHub.
