Summary of Changes

Hello, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request systematically refactors the naming conventions within the @rspack/dev-middleware package, replacing all instances of 'webpack' with 'rspack' in code, tests, and documentation. The primary objective is to align the project's terminology with its core technology, Rspack, thereby enhancing clarity and consistency. Crucially, the changes also ensure backward compatibility by preserving legacy 'webpack' API shapes where necessary, allowing for a smooth transition for existing users.

Highlights

• Naming Convention Update: Renamed internal references from 'webpack' to 'rspack' across the codebase, including variable names, logger names, and framework wrapper functions.
• Backward Compatibility: Introduced 'res.locals.rspack' for middleware context while explicitly preserving 'res.locals.webpack' to ensure existing integrations continue to function without disruption.
• Documentation and Metadata Alignment: Updated documentation, 'package.json' keywords, and type definitions to reflect the 'rspack' naming, removing 'webpack' specific metadata.
• Test Suite Adjustments: Modified test helpers and middleware tests to validate the new 'rspack' naming conventions and confirm the continued functionality of backward-compatible 'webpack' references.

Code Review

This pull request effectively refactors the codebase by renaming all instances of webpack to rspack, which is consistently applied across the code, tests, and documentation. The change also correctly preserves the legacy webpack API on res.locals for backward compatibility, and this is well-tested. I have one suggestion to improve the documentation to make this backward compatibility explicit to users.

Pull request overview

This PR updates the dev-middleware’s public-facing naming and SSR integration points to be Rspack-first (while still keeping a legacy webpack SSR alias in some places), and aligns tests/types/docs accordingly.

Changes:

• Add res.locals.rspack.devMiddleware SSR state (alongside a legacy res.locals.webpack.devMiddleware alias in the core middleware).
• Rename hook/plugin identifiers and framework wrapper names from webpack-dev-middleware to rspack-dev-middleware.
• Update TypeScript typings, tests, and README SSR documentation to reference the new rspack locals shape.
