webpack-dev-middleware
THIS MIDDLEWARE SHOULD ONLY USED FOR DEVELOPMENT!
DO NOT USE IT IN PRODUCTION!
What is it?
It's a simple wrapper middleware for webpack. It serves the files emitted from webpack over a connect server.
It has a few advantages over bundling it as files:
- No files are written to disk, it handle the files in memory
- If files changed in watch mode, the middleware no longer serves the old bundle, but delays requests until the compiling has finished. You don't have to wait before refreshing the page after a file modification.
- I may add some specific optimization in future releases.
Usage
var webpackMiddleware = ;app;
Example usage:
app;
