Prestashop theme. Webpack 3 migration and hot module replacement

This repository is a developer example demonstrating how to migrate the PrestaShop Classic Theme asset pipeline from Webpack 2 to Webpack 3, with hot module replacement (HMR) enabled for a faster front-end development workflow. Rather than a deployable storefront theme, it is a reference implementation showing the configuration and tooling changes needed to support HMR during theme development. It is based on a specific version of the PrestaShop Classic Theme.

• Webpack 3 migration from Webpack 2, including updated babel-loader and extract-text-webpack-plugin
• Hot Module Replacement via webpack-hot-middleware and browser-sync-dev-hot-webpack-plugin, enabling live updates without full page reloads
• Multi-config webpack setup using webpack-merge, with separate default, development (with source maps), and production (minified) configurations
• Browser-sync proxy for the PHP backend with HTML injection support via bs-html-injector

This example is intended for PrestaShop theme developers who want to modernise their development workflow with hot module replacement and a Webpack 3 build pipeline. It requires NodeJS and shell access, and familiarity with webpack configuration. It is not a production-ready storefront theme.
