webpack-incremental-ident v0.2.1

Webpack Incremental Ident

Webpack plugin transform your css class name into shortest form.

✍️ Using incremental class names causes problem because of two reasons:

• You change the order when using require/import.

This plugin solves the problem above by keeping track of incremental class names and reuse them for following compilings.
