Description
JavaScript is the only programming language all web browsers natively understand.
But what happens when your application gets too complex to effectively scale and be maintained when it is written as a loosely-connected array of plain JavaScript files?
The solution, of course, is to write your application using more sophisticated tools like TypeScript, React, LESS, JSON, and more. And to bundle all these non-JavaScript files into one clean package that browsers can understand you need a special tool like Webpack.
In this course, we'll learn everything necessary to build a deployment ready application with Webpack. Some of the key skills we'll be covering include:
Installing Webpack using NPM
Differentiating between Webpack versions
Creating a Webpack configuration file and editing it
Serving Webpack applications in a development context using Webpack Dev Server
Compiling React applications to JavaScript
Compiling CSS to JavaScript
Compiling text files (YAML) to JavaScript objects
... much more
We'll be combining all these skills into a single Webpack application which you can build in real time while taking the course. This fun and interactive application will impress your peers and can be used as a base to practice or develop any Webpack skills you wish!
