I love webpack and highly recommend it, but it is not trivial to integrate it into an existing project and pretty much nothing about webpack can be described as "done in 5 seconds".
- dustingetz 11y agoI did it in a big project it took a couple days, really wasn't that big a deal, and legacy JavaScript still goes through webpack and works unmodified, then a couple weeks to iron out any kinks in the CI scripts (but was still developing during this time)
- vectorpush 11y agoA couple days sounds about right and jives with my own experiences, but I feel like "do this in 5 seconds" is pretty misleading, especially for someone who may have never used webpack before. It's absolutely worth the effort, but I wouldn't want someone to be discouraged had they expected a "5 second" solution but then realized it's not quite that simple.
- muzmath 11y agoThis is typical programmer attitude. Standard estimates go like this: When trying to make themselves look good on online developer forums: 1/100th real development time When estimating time involved for co-worker: 1/10th real development time When estimating time involved for themselves at work: 1/2 real development time
