Motivation
Currently, we use uglify via uglifyjs-webpack-plugin.
Some history:
uglifyjs-webpack-plugin
< v1.0 used the minifieruglify-js
uglify-js
does not support ES6, which resulted in a forkcalled
uglify-es
that was developed in theuglify-js
repository,but under the
harmony
branchuglifyjs-webpack-plugin
v1.x switched touglify-es
for ES6 supportuglify-es
stopped being maintained:uglify-es is stale mishoo/UglifyJS#3156 (comment)
terser
that has incorporated all ofthe unmerged PRs and will be where all new development occurs:
https://github.com/fabiosantoscode/terser
terser-webpack-plugin
was created, which is theterser
equivalentof
uglifyjs-webpack-plugin
:https://github.com/webpack-contrib/terser-webpack-plugin
uglifyjs-webpack-plugin
v2.x will be switching back touglify-js
,so any project that needs to support ES6 now needs to switch to
terser-webpack-plugin
.Some references
Create-react-app use Terser
Webpack v5 will use terser plugin by default.
