webpack/examples/multiple-entry-points/template.md

This example shows how to use multiple entry points with a commons chunk.

In this example you have two (HTML) pages `pageA` and `pageB`. You want to create individual bundles for each page. In addition to this you want to create a shared bundle that contains all modules used in both pages (assuming there are many/big modules in common). The pages also use Code Splitting to load a less used part of the features on demand.

You can see how to define multiple entry points via the `entry` option.

You can use

You can see the output files:

* `commons.js` contains:
  * module `common.js` which is used in both pages
* `pageA.js` contains: (`pageB.js` is similar)
  * the module system
  * chunk loading logic
  * the entry point `pageA.js`
  * it would contain any other module that is only used by `pageA`
* `1.js` is an additional chunk which is used by both pages. It contains:
  * module `shared.js`

You can also see the info that is printed to console. It shows among others:

* the generated files
* the chunks with file, name and id
  * see lines starting with `chunk`
* the modules that are in the chunks
* the reasons why the modules are included
* the reasons why a chunk is created
  * see lines starting with `>`
