This adds the general machinery required, and sets it up for the file
`typing_status.js` as a first use case.

Otherwise Bootstrap doesn’t get minified, and also the minification
state is incorrectly reflected in the webpack cache.
The Terser plugin is used by default; we need to include it explicitly
to avoid removing it.
Switch from cssnano to clean-css because it’s noticeably faster.

It’s about as fast as node-sass (faster, according to their
benchmarks) and more flexible. Autoprefixer is neat: we can now go
delete all our -moz-, -webkit-, etc. lines and have them autogenerated
as necessary based on .browserslistrc.

Polling for changes every 100 milliseconds was burning enough CPU to
set mid-2015 MacBooks on fire. Use the default inotify watching,
except on filesystems where that’s known not to work (nfs, vboxsf), in
which case polling once per second is more than enough for even the
fastest typers.

We had several patches to spectrum, but the only essential one
(0ea770fc18) had already been fixed upstream,
and another was just handling jQuery deprecation warnings for not yet removed features.

We don’t need a hacked copy anymore. We run the installed version out
of node_modules in development, and a Webpack-bundled version of that
in production.

The minimal syntactic sugar it might provide isn’t worth the
unexpected side effects (including side effects on third party
modules).
For now, we allow zrequire to emulate the previous syntax in the Node
test suite, even though stealing part of the NPM namespace is
confusing.

Given mini-css-extract-plugin can now do hot module replacement,
this commit also removed css-hot-loader. Not upgrading to 0.7.0
as that cause webpack to crash.
Profiling shows that using cache-loader saves ~6-7 seconds of time take
by webpack-dev-server on subsequent runs. The overhaul this adds when
nothing is cached (when running first time) is around 1-2 seconds. We don't
use cache loader for ts-loader since webpack docs says it will slow it down
and file-loader since it just copies files over and caching it would just
was disk space.
This is the second merge of this commit. It fixes the issue with the
previous one by placingn cache-loader after mini-css-loader because it
just extracts css and caching that will make file-loader not run which
in turn makes developement enviorment break.

Webpack applies special logic to relative paths provided in
`resolve.modules`, and this logic is expected to be used for
`node_modules`. One case where this is important is when
`node_modules/foo` wants to import a different version of package
`bar` than the one at `node_modules/bar`, and so yarn gives it its own
copy at `node_modules/foo/node_modules/bar`.
It would probably be better to avoid screwing with `resolve.modules`
at all, but this at least brings us one step closer to the default of
just `["node_modules"]`.

This commit fixes some modules that were erroneously left out while
transitioning app.js to webpack. This commit exposes them using
expose-loader or setting them directly to window.
This commit moves all files previously under the 'app' bundle in
the Django pipeline to being compiled by webpack under the 'app'
entry point. In the process, it moves assets under the app entry
to a file called app.js that consumes all relevant css and js files.
This commit also edits the webpack config to be able to expose certain
variables for third party libraries that are currently required by
some modules. This is bad coding form and should be refactored to
requiring whatever dependencies a module may have; we're just
deferring that to the future to simplify the series of transitions we
need to do here. The variable exposure is done using expose-loader in
webpack.
The app/index.html template is edited to override the newly introduced
'commonjs' block in the base template. This is done as a temporary
measure so as not to disrupt other pages on the app during the transition.
It also fixes the value of the 'this' context that was being inferred
as window by third party libraries. This is done using imports-loader
in the webpack config. This is also messy and probably isn't how we
want things to work long term.
This should avoid us creating duplicate webpack bundles every time we
do a deployment, even if none of the files in the bundles themselves
have changed at all.
This commit improves the output that blueslip produces while
showing error stack traces on the front-end. This is done by
using a library called error-stack-parser to format the stack
traces.
This commit also edits the webpack config to use a different
devtool setting since the previous one did not support sourcemaps
within stack traces. It also removes a plugin that was obviated
by this change.
This commit removes the flash on unstyled content while in dev
mode that was caused by the use of style-loader. Instead it
enables mini-css-extract-plugin in dev in combination with
css-hot-loader which enables HMR for development.
This is because mini-css-extract-plugin does not currently support
HMR out of the box. It also adds a SourceMapDevtoolPlugin to enable
sourcemaps with css since mini-css breaks sourcemaps when used in
combination with the cheap-module-evel-source-map setting.

Adds support for importing png files using file-loader in webpack.
Changes the name of the output directory to be files instead of
fonts for better readability.
This commit removes the need for portico.css to be generated
by the Django pipeline and makes the error page use the css
file compiled by webpack instead.
static/styles/scss/portico.scss is now compiled by webpack
and supports SCSS syntax.
Changed the server-side templates to render the portico-styles
bundle instead of directly requiring the portico stylesheet. This
allows webpack to handle stylesheet compilation and minification.
We use the mini-css-extract-plugin to extract out css from the
includes in webpack and let webpacks production mode handle
minification. Currently we're not able to use it for dev mode
because it does not support HMR so we use style-loader instead.
Once the plugin supports HMR we can go on to use it for both
dev and prod.
The downside of this is that when reloading pages in the development
environment, there's an annoying flash of unstyled content :(.
It is now possible to make a change in any of the styles included
by static/styles/scss/portico.scss and see the code reload live
in the browser. This is because style-loader which we currently
use has the module.accept code built-in.
This commit fixes hot module replacement in webpack. To do this
we open port 9994 used by webpack to communicate between browser
and devserver. The attempts to forward the proxy from 9991 failed
so the last resort was to open up the webpack port.
It also removes an uncessary plugin in the webpack config and moves
the --hot flag to tools/webpack.
Update the config file to show slightly more information while
compiling webpack. Also decreased the time webpack waits before
recompiling in order to speed up HMR.
Changed the devtoool setting for development from 'eval' to
'cheap-module-eval-source-map' as it has better support for
breakpoints in Google Chrome and the difference is time is
negligible at the number and size of files currently being
consumed by webpack. This stragtegy can be reviewed in the
future as the size of files grows or Chrome adds better
support.
Upgrade webpack to latest version at the time of authoring. This
involves upgrading webpack version and its loaders to compatible
versions. It also involved editing tools/webpack to use the
executable for webpack-cli instead because of a change in how the
webpack package wants you to handle shell execution.
It also fixes the confugration for TypeScript in the webpack config
as that was previously broken. Including TypeScript files in JS
files compiled by webpack now works.
