JavaScript is the only programming language all web browsers natively understand.
But what happens when your application gets too complex to effectively scale and be maintained when it is written as a loosely-connected array of plain JavaScript files?
The solution, of course, is to write your application using more sophisticated tools like TypeScript, React, LESS, JSON, and more. And to bundle all these non-JavaScript files into one clean package that browsers can understand you need a special tool like Webpack.
In this course, we'll learn everything necessary to build a deployment ready application with Webpack. Some of the key skills we'll be covering include:
Installing Webpack using NPM
Differentiating between Webpack versions
Creating a Webpack configuration file and editing it
Serving Webpack applications in a development context using Webpack Dev Server
Compiling React applications to JavaScript
Compiling CSS to JavaScript
Compiling text files (YAML) to JavaScript objects
We'll be combining all these skills into a single Webpack application which you can build in real time while taking the course. This fun and interactive application will impress your peers and can be used as a base to practice or develop any Webpack skills you wish!
Don't hesitate. Don't even think about it. Sign on up and get ready to use Webpack and kick-start your career in any of the following high-demand fields:

Known in development circles as “the Code Whisperer," Daniel Stern has been believed to possess a supernatural connection to computers ever since he talked the supercomputer Deep Blue off the roof of a twelve-story St. Petersburg apartment building, following its shameful loss to Gary Kasparov.
He can often be found singing softly to his tablet, or gently caressing his aluminum keyboard in his arms.
Daniel has been working as a front end and full stack developer in the tech industry since 2011. He's developed single-page applications for banks like CIBC, charities like the Ontario Institute for Cancer Research, and at ad agencies like McLaren McCann, TraffikGroup and Olson. Throughout his labors, he's worked on computer programming in his spare time because, well, he's obsessed with it.
In addition to being featured in both CSS Weekly and JavaScript weekly, Daniel is well-known throughout the open-source community for maintaining several open-source tools, most notably the Angular.js and LESS-based tool, Range .css and the Angular .js audio tool, ngAudio.
In addition to being trusted by the open source community to develop top-quality, functional code, Daniel has also been invited to speak at numerous conferences including Full Stack Conference 2014 in London, England.
Daniel is an active learner and very passionate about the following technologies,
- Node.js - Angular.js - TypeScript - MongoDB - LESS - Grunt - Yeoman - Many, many, many more
