Why the negativity towards Webpack?

• ReactTemplate

  51 193 5.3 JavaScript

  Preconfigured React project with webpack build system and jest unit testing

Most people have only ever used Webpack via CRA which is a terribly optimized config. If you design your own Webpack config it can be so fast that you won't notice it. (Example)

• webpack

  330 64,160 9.8 JavaScript

  A bundler for javascript and friends. Packs many modules into a few bundled assets. Code Splitting allows for loading parts of the application on demand. Through "loaders", modules can be CommonJs, AMD, ES6 modules, CSS, Images, JSON, Coffeescript, LESS, ... and your custom stuff.

  

i was pleased to see webpack continuing to push out releases recently, i am just speculating but maybe there was a passing of the torch because all previous releases before march of this year were done by sokra and now done by thelarkinn (https://github.com/webpack/webpack/releases)

• SurveyJS

• alright-react-app

  15 142 5.3 JavaScript

  Professional React app generator. Comes with an exposed, unopinionated, high performance configuration. Jest, SWC, Storybook, Typescript 5, Webpack 5.

It's because most webpack projects compile jsx with babel and send the whole dependency chunk straight away. Use this generator to get top performance and maximum flexibility: https://github.com/DoneDeal0/alright-react-app
