webpack-simple-serve v0.2.0

webpack-simple-serve

Why

webpack-dev-server is slow.

Differences with webpack-dev-server

• Use webpack's watch feature
• Don't put files in memory, write them to disk instead
• Use serve to serve the compiled static files

That's all.

Installation

npm i webpack-simple-serve -D

Usage

With the CLI

In the directory where your webpack.config.js is, run:

node_modules/.bin/webpack-simple-serve

With NPM Scripts

"scripts": {
  "dev": "webpack-simple-serve"
}

Options

To get help for all options:

node_modules/.bin/webpack-simple-serve -h

simpleDevServer options in webpack.config.js
