Docs request for combination with vendor chunks and or AutoDLL Plugin about webpack-flush-chunks HOT 3 CLOSED

I was wondering whether this is related to: asfktz/autodll-webpack-plugin#23

from webpack-flush-chunks.

It is, and I researched it to attempt to do a PR to the autodll package--basically Webpack has it planned for the future to allow plugin authors to add to stats. Currently we cannot--unless I'm missing something.

So the chunk created by autodll won't be in stats.assetsByChunkName, and there's nothing we can do about it. You just gotta append it to the page manually like we always have done.

Feel free to add it to the readme as a PR.

The challenge with the setup I've proposed through these tools is that no matter which way you slice it, it requires lots of setup/configuration. That's the price we pay for frameworkless flexibility vs. something like Next.js.

Basically, the notes on webpack "externals" is the beginning of a troubleshooting.md. I'm not sure if the entire webpack configuration docs should go there, but probably things like the hashed/named module ids stuff should go there as well. We're gonna need a complete list of "gotchas" and configuration requirements in one place.

Webpack Flush Chunks fyi will be renamed universal-render. I already own the npm package. There's a lot more coming out. Any help is much appreciated to bring this all together.

Also note, as everything comes together under the universal-render umbrella it will simplify many things. So we will achieve soon enough the best we can in frameworkless npm/react/webpack land.

There's a note added to the readme:

If there's more you feel should be said, go for it.
