The new era of zero-config tools
Alex Jover at React Alicante 2018
We come from a time where javascript was kept in different files, loading them in the right order in the html. Module loaders came to life, RequireJS and Browserify being the first of them. Webpack and Rollup followed them, which are truly amazing. But... have you ever configured them for a real-world app?

This talk dives deep in this zero-config evolution, explaining its reasons and benefits.
