Webpack
Webpack is the grandfather of bundlers. While slower than Vite, it offers unparalleled flexibility and remains the engine behind Next.js (legacy), Angular, and enterprise apps.
When to Use
- Complex Federation: Module Federation (Micro-frontends) is best in Webpack / Rspack.
- Legacy Apps: Migrating a massive app to Vite might be too costly.
- Granular Control: You need to control every byte of the chunk splitting algorithm.
Core Concepts
Loaders
Transform files. ts-loader, css-loader, file-loader.
Plugins
Tap into the build lifecycle. HtmlWebpackPlugin, DefinePlugin.
Module Federation
Allows a JavaScript application to dynamically load code from another application.
Best Practices (2025)
Do:
- Consider Rspack: If Webpack is too slow, Rspack is a Rust-based drop-in replacement.
- Use
swc-loader: Replacebabel-loaderwithswc-loaderfor 20x speedup.
Don't:
- Don't start new projects with it: Use Vite or generic frameworks (Next.js) instead.
