forked from https://github.com/shivero/webpack-4-react-bootstrap-starter-template
Starter template for projects that use webpack 4 in pair with React, Bootstrap 4 and ES6 Javascript. This project contains configuration for development and production deploy using webpack 4 module bundler and tools which might be helpful
Make sure you install all dependencies first, run npm -i (shorthand for npm install)
npm i
To use configured development mode simply run
npm run start
To build all files for the production run
npm run build
An output is minified via --mode flag which is set to production (already minified, optimized bundle) - additionally /dist directory is removed each time you run this script to make sure there are no artifacts left in the output location
Optionally there is configured a task to export files with development mode (output is not minimized/optimized). To use it run
npm run dev
