aurelia-webpack-build

This repo contains demos that I used when developping the new v2.0 webpack plugins for Aurelia.

They are meant to be as simple and straightforward as possible. I made them starting from scratch, without helper libs or CLI.

The companion wiki goes into more details.

Another user put up a super minimal setup for JS-only projects (no TS, no LESS -- in fact no CSS). Check it out here: https://github.com/nathanchase/super-minimal-aurelia

1. No_splits uses includeAll to easily put all of src into the bundle, without requiring internal PLATFORM.moduleName annotations. It's the easiest way to get started with Webpack on an existing project. Note that you still need moduleName when referring to external code.

2. Traced_deps uses a more standard tracing approach. Webpack determines what depends on what precisely and bundles it. The main difference with 1. is that we also use moduleName internally.

3. Code_splits is the same as 2. but uses moduleName("module", "chunk") when defining routes so that area of the application are lazily loaded on demand.

4. Small_ES6_build is my test project to see how small a basic Aurelia build can get. Some restrictions apply, like using ES6 without polyfills or lack of SVG support. See the wiki page for more infos.

5. DllReferencePlugin is an advanced scenario that enables partial compilation and long term caching. See the wiki page for more infos.

6. ASPNET is a setup that incorporate an Aurelia + Webpack front-end into an ASP.NET Core + SPA Services back-end.
