How do I configure CSS modules in my React project?

To configure CSS modules in your React project, you need to set up your build tool (like Webpack) to recognize CSS module files. Typically, you would name your CSS files with a .module.css extension.

What changes do I need to make in my Webpack configuration?

In your Webpack configuration, you need to add a rule for handling CSS files. It should look something like this:

module: {
  rules: [
    {
      test: /.module.css$/,
      use: [
        'style-loader',
        {
          loader: 'css-loader',
          options: {
            modules: true,
          },
        },
      ],
    },
  ],
},

Can I use CSS modules with other CSS preprocessors?

Yes, you can use CSS modules with preprocessors like SASS or LESS. Just ensure that your loader configuration supports them.

What are the benefits of using CSS modules?

CSS modules help in avoiding class name collisions, making styles more modular and maintainable, and they can improve the overall organization of your styles.
