How to create a front end application using webpack 5

Welcome to another Nextiva Tech Talk!
Nextiva Tech Talks are technical discussions surrounding current software development practices and tools. In this Tech Talk, Nacho Sainz, Senior Software Engineer, demonstrates how to create a front end application using Webpack 5.

Webpack 5 improves performance by using persistent caching and long-term scalability. It also gives developers better web platform compatibility and code creation. In this presentation, Nacho will use React CLI (create-react-app) and Webpack to bootstrap a project and show how developers can use plugins and other features with confidence on front-end applications. The information presented in this Tech Talk is designed for beginner to intermediate developers. We invite you to join us in our discussion on Single Page Applications (SPA), package configurations, development environments, making configuration files, and setting up a dev server proxy.
