What are some recommended plugins for Webpack?

There are several great plugins for Webpack! Some popular ones include HtmlWebpackPlugin, MiniCssExtractPlugin, and TerserWebpackPlugin. What specific functionality are you looking for?

I'm looking to optimize my build size. Any suggestions?

For optimizing build size, I recommend using TerserWebpackPlugin for minification and CompressionPlugin for gzip compression. You might also consider using BundleAnalyzerPlugin to visualize your bundle size.

How do I set up the HtmlWebpackPlugin?

To set up HtmlWebpackPlugin, first install it via npm: npm install --save-dev html-webpack-plugin. Then, in your Webpack configuration file, require it and add it to the plugins array like this: new HtmlWebpackPlugin({ template: 'src/index.html' }).

Can you give me an example of a Webpack configuration file?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

const path = require('path');
const HtmlWebpackPlugin = require('html-webpack-plugin');

module.exports = {
  entry: './src/index.js',
  output: {
    filename: 'bundle.js',
    path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist'),
  },
  plugins: [
    new HtmlWebpackPlugin({ template: 'src/index.html' }),
  ],
};
