Feature Request:

Any idea how to bring this down? Is it just semantics and iconsapple-touch-startup-image-1536x2008.png?

Hi @TheDolo, icons aren't included in bundle size. You can run ANALYZE_BUNDLE=true APP_LANGUAGE=en npm run build for more info about bundle. Did you mean client + vendor size = 1.2mb?

I appreciate the suggestions for Webpack! That's one of my weak areas at the moment, but not for long :D

Oh my, BundleAnalyzerPlugin is fantastic. Make this part of the docs!! (OH, it is already!) Yea, it's both. Thanks!

Edit: momentJS is a pig! https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25384360/how-to-prevent-moment-js-from-loading-locales-with-webpack

Hmm, but there is no momentJS in the starter... But yes, I agree, moment.js is a pig :)

Oh yea, that was on me! I added some other things and saw it reach 2MB, panic'd, started from scratch again and saw a 1.2MB default build, panic'd again then realized gzip is amazing, learned some more webpack, and now I see the light!

I also did this:
base.plugins.push(new BundleAnalyzerPlugin({analyzerMode: 'static'}))

Which got rid of the 8088 server and did .html reports! For some reason the analyzer server did not exit with ctrl+c. It's a github bug I think!

Hm, strange, but why it's a github bug?

webpack-contrib/webpack-bundle-analyzer#37 I think!
and coryhouse/react-slingshot#301

Do you use BundleAnalyzer in dev move?
As I understood it crashes when --watch is on

Naw, only needed in production!
