LEARNING PATH: Webpack: Web Development with Webpack

Webpack is a module bundler for modern JavaScript applications. So if you are a developer and want to master Webpack in order to optimize the performance of your applications by improving workflows, then go for this Learning Path.

Packt’s Video Learning Paths are a series of individual video products put together in a logical and stepwise manner such that each video builds on the skills learned in the video before it.  The highlights of this Learning Path are:

• Learn how to install, configure, and run Webpack
• Lean to apply on-demand code loading to your application
• Learn how to improve your application by deploying to dynamic cloud hosting sites such as AWS

Let’s take a quick look at your learning journey. To start off with, you will be introduced to Webpack’s basic functionalities and discover how Webpack recursively builds a dependency graph that includes every module needed by your application and all those modules are then packaged into one or more bundles. You will learn many additional capabilities and features available in Webpack using loaders. You will also learn how to handle assets with CSS Loaders and deal with images and image compression. Further, you will explore the latest features provided by Webpack. Next, you will learn how to use Webpack with a real project. You will be provided with a dynamic responsive photo gallery application written in React, along with minimal to basic Webpack configuration and will be shown how to apply advanced features such as deploying with Babel, code splitting, and ES2015. Finally, you will be able to deploy your application to dynamic cloud hosting sites such as AWS in order to improve the existing application.

By the end of this Learning Path, you will have a deep understanding of Webpack and be able to create and deploy your applications.
