It seems like  this sort of &amp;#x27;sane defaults&amp;#x27; functionality could easily be added to future versions of webpack, and that might really help with adoption... rather than this community endlessly switching tool chains.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Vue.js and Brunch: Webpack Alternative</title><url>https://vuejsdevelopers.com/2017/08/20/vue-js-brunch/?jsdojo_id=reddit_vpb</url></story>

But I wasn&amp;#x27;t happy with how plugins worked, or their &amp;quot;all files get included in your bundle even if you never required them&amp;quot;.&lt;p&gt;So I built my own build system on top of Gulp, and added a set of tasks using browserify for web apps (&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;BraveNewWorldDev&amp;#x2F;parched-example-app&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;BraveNewWorldDev&amp;#x2F;parched-example-app&lt;/a&gt;). It&amp;#x27;s heavily &amp;quot;convention over configuration&amp;quot;, like &amp;quot;npm install parched-babel&amp;quot; is all you need to get Babel integrated.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m still using it in production on websites, Cordova apps, and Electron apps, but I&amp;#x27;d still recommend webpack nowadays since that&amp;#x27;s where the community is.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Vue.js and Brunch: Webpack Alternative</title><url>https://vuejsdevelopers.com/2017/08/20/vue-js-brunch/?jsdojo_id=reddit_vpb</url></story>
