null-loader

A webpack loader that returns an empty module.

One use for this loader is to silence modules imported by a dependency. Say, for
example, your project relies on an ES6 library that imports a polyfill you don't
need, so removing it will cause no loss in functionality.

Getting Started

To begin, you'll need to install null-loader:

``console $ npm install null-loader --save-dev`

Then add the loader to your webpack config. For example:

`js // webpack.config.js const path = require('path');

module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { // Test for a polyfill (or any file) and it won't be included in your // bundle test: path.resolve(__dirname, 'node_modules/library/polyfill.js'), use: 'null-loader', }, ], }, };`

And run webpack` via your preferred method.
