What is it?

The plugin generates a report that contains all the assets of specific entrypoints. This report can be used to render the page on the server (to include only the necessary styles and scripts).

Report example:

{
    "index": {
        "js": ["vendor.js", "index.build.js"],
        "css": ["index.build.css"]
    },
    "office": {
        "js": ["vendor.js", "office.build.js"],
        "css": ["office.build.css"]
    }
}

Getting started

npm i -D chunks-report-webpack-plugin
