# Introduction
webpack is a bundler for modules. The main purpose is to bundle javascript files for usage in a browser.
Webpack is a bundler for modules. Its main purpose is to bundle JavaScript files for usage in a browser.
**TL;DR**
**TL; DR**
* bundles [CommonJs](http://www.commonjs.org/specs/modules/1.0/) and [AMD](https://github.com/amdjs/amdjs-api/wiki/AMD) modules. (even combined)
* can create a single bundle or multiple chunks loaded on demand, to reduce initial loading time.
* dependencies are resolved during compilation reducing the runtime size
* loaders can preprocess files while compiling, i. e. coffee-script to javascript

## Plugins
webpack has a [rich plugin interface](http://webpack.github.io/docs/plugins.html). Most of the features within webpack itself use this plugin interface. This makes webpack very **flexible**.

## Performance

## Loaders
webpack enables use of loaders to preprocess files. This allows you to bundle **any static resource** way beyond javascript. You can easily [write your own loaders](http://webpack.github.io/docs/loaders.html) using node.js.

## Support
webpack supports **AMD and CommonJS** module styles. It performs clever static analysis on the AST of your code. It even has an evaluation engine to evaluate simple expressions. This allows you to **support most existing libraries**.
Webpack supports **AMD and CommonJS** modules. It performs clever, static analyses on the AST of your code. It even has an evaluation engine to evaluate simple expressions. This allows you to **support most existing libraries**.
## Code Splitting
webpack allows you to split your codebase into multiple chunks. Chunks are loaded **on demand**. This reduces the initial loading time.
## Optimizations
webpack can do many optimizations to **reduce the output size**. It also can make your chunks **cache friendly** by using hashes.
Webpack allows you to split your codebase into multiple chunks. Chunks are loaded **on-demand**. This reduces the initial loading time.
## Optimization
Webpack optimizes in several ways. It also makes your chunks **cache-friendly** by using hashes.
# A small example of what's possible
``` javascript
// webpack is a module bundler
// This means webpack takes modules with dependencies
// and emits static assets representing those modules.

define(["amd-module", "../file"], function(amdModule, file) {
// while previous constructs are sync
define(["amd-module", "../file"], function (amdModule, file) {
// while previous constructs are sync,
// this is async
require(["big-module/big/file"], function(big) {
// for async dependencies webpack splits
// your application into multiple "chunks".

// For async dependencies, Webpack splits
// your application into multiple "chunks."
// This part of your application is
// loaded on demand (Code Splitting)
// loaded on demand (code-splitting).
var stuff = require("../my/stuff");
// "../my/stuff" is also loaded on demand
// "../my/stuff" is also loaded on-demand
// because it's in the callback function
// of the AMD require
// of the AMD require.

You are welcome to contribute by opening an issue or a pull request.
It would be nice if you open sourced your own loaders or webmodules. :)
