CSS Modules

$3

A specific use case that this plugin covers is SSR.
Using extract: false will not process css on server side but will keep css mapping for css modules.

PostCSS

The plugin is using PostCSS to handle css modules files.
You can include any other plugins with the postcss option.

$3

Do not use cssnano plugin. It won't work and if it did it minifies all files seperatly (slow not efficient).
Just let esbuild minify and do his job.

$3

If you want to be able to use import styles from 'styles.module.sass' without any errors
Just add esbuild-style-plugin to your types in tsconfig.json`

!tsconfig.json import types
