Green Aspect:
Caching: Proper caching strategies ensure that users don’t have to re-download unchanged assets. This reduces the load on servers and the amount of data transferred, which in turn lowers energy consumption. How to Implement:
Use content hashing to create unique filenames for your assets, which helps in long-term caching.
Example:
module.exports = {
output: {
filename: '[name].[contenthash].js',
path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist')
},
};
Using HtmlWebpackPlugin to clean the code structure:
const HtmlWebpackPlugin = require('html-webpack-plugin');
module.exports = {
plugins: [ new HtmlWebpackPlugin({ template: './src/index.html', minify: { removeComments: true, collapseWhitespace: true, }, }), ], // other configurations...
};
Green Development Practices
Development Server: Use Webpack’s development server efficiently to avoid unnecessary resource usage. How to Implement:
Configure the development server to use minimal resources. Example:
module.exports = {
devServer: { contentBase: './dist', compress: true, port: 9000 }, // other configurations...
};
