How can I automate JavaScript minification in my build process?

You can use tools like Webpack, Gulp, or Grunt to automate JavaScript minification. Would you like a specific example?

Yes, can you show me how to set it up with Webpack?

Sure! First, install Webpack and the Terser plugin. Then, configure your Webpack config file to include the minification step.

What does the configuration look like?

Here's a basic example:

const TerserPlugin = require('terser-webpack-plugin');
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [new TerserPlugin()],
  },
};

That looks great! How do I run the build?

You can run the build by executing webpack --mode production in your terminal. This will trigger the minification process.
