Welcome to the symfony-webpack-bundle wiki!

Here you can find more detailed info about integration of Webpack into a Symfony application and specific features of this bundle.

Originally this project was started as a fork of mariusbalcytis/webpack-bundle. The author made an amazing job and we would gladly contribute. Unfortunately some urgent changes was needed to the bundle and there was several days delay in response so we had to start a separate repo.

Introduction

This Symfony bundle integrates webpack into a Symfony project in a way that minimizes the time required for setup and maintenance.

Both webpack v1.x and v2.x are supported.

Amount of required parameters in Symfony app/config is minimized to avoid any issues and give you freedom in the main symfony-webpack.config.js.

Additionally Symfony apps with non-standard directory structures or apps that have multiple kernels are supported.

Webpack

Webpack raised the bar for web performance and developer experience with one tool. It comprises a module bundler (e.g. CommonJS / AMD / ES6 imports) and a task runner (e.g. Grunt, Gulp, Broccoli).

The symfony-webpack bundle aims to be a perfect replacement to the well-known and over-limited assetic bundle that is still widely used in Symfony projects.
