Webpack Starter Template

A clean, modern, and scalable starting point for your next web project.

This template provides a pre-configured development environment using webpack, Babel, and a set of common loaders and plugins. It's designed to be a solid foundation for building modern web applications with a focus on best practices and a great developer experience.

Features

• Modern JavaScript: Full support for ES6+ syntax via Babel.
• Development Server: A hot-reloading development server for a fast and efficient workflow.
• Asset Bundling: A robust configuration for bundling JavaScript, CSS, and images.
• Optimized Builds: Pre-configured scripts for creating optimized production builds.
• Clean Code: A well-organized and documented codebase that's easy to understand and extend.

Getting Started

To use this template, you can either clone this repository or download the source code.

Prerequisites

• Node.js (v18 or later)
