How do I use Webpack for my project?

Webpack is a module bundler that helps you bundle your JavaScript files for usage in a browser. Would you like a step-by-step guide?

Yes, please! What are the first steps?

First, you need to install Webpack and Webpack CLI. You can do this using npm with the command: npm install --save-dev webpack webpack-cli.

What should I do after installing it?

Next, create a webpack.config.js file in your project root. This file will contain your configuration settings for Webpack.

Can you give me an example of a basic configuration?

Sure! A basic configuration might look like this:

const path = require('path');
module.exports = {
  entry: './src/index.js',
  output: {
    filename: 'bundle.js',
    path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist'),
  },
};
