• Simple interface

Coming Soon

Analysis

npm run build:analyze builds static analysis to examine bundle sizing. You can see output reports in dist/stats.html and dist/report.html then use http-server to run a http server and access the stats.html. Just run http-server dist (ensure you have http-server installed globally) the dist parameter ensures that it uses the dist folder. It will give you an IP address e.g. http://172.17.126.81:8080 then you can access stats.html using http://172.17.126.81:8080/stats.html.
