The AutomaticPrefetchPlugin
discovers all modules from the previous compilation upfront while watching for changes, trying to improve the incremental build times. Compared to PrefetchPlugin
which discovers a single module upfront.
May or may not have a performance benefit since the incremental build times are pretty fast.
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
// ...
plugins: [
new webpack.AutomaticPrefetchPlugin()
]
};
