indoqa-webpack v2.2.0

Indoqa Webpack

Motivation

Webpack is a low-level build tool for Javascript web applications. In our opinion too low-level to be maintained in each of our projects. Since we found out that our webpack configurations are in huge parts identical, we started indoqa-webpack which can be configured delcaratively.

Goals

The goal of indoqa-webpack is supporting following use cases:

• create production-ready release artifacts (Javascript, CSS)
• provide a hot-reloadable development server using express
• support for Javascript libraries and make use of externals
• out-of-the-box usage for Jest tests
• out-of-the-box configuration of ESLint using eslint-config-indoqa
• hide webpack configurations and provide a declarative configuration
• simple upgrade path to newer versions of indoqa-webpack
