Webpack Fundamentals Review

Hello! Today, we'll refresh our knowledge of Webpack, a powerful tool for modern web development. It's often called a static module bundler.

Think of it as a smart assistant that takes all your project files – JavaScript, CSS, images – and bundles them into a few optimized files for the browser.

In web development, we often break our code into many small, manageable files (modules). While great for organization, this can lead to a problem:

• Many HTTP Requests: Each file needs to be downloaded separately by the browser.
• Slower Load Times: Too many requests can slow down your website.

Bundling solves this by combining these files, reducing requests and improving performance!
