webpack-recompilation-simulator allows simulating webpack recompilations. This tool helps developers understand the performance impact of code changes on their webpack builds. It tracks module build times, identifies slow modules, and provides insights into optimizing build performance. By simulating recompilations, developers can predict the effect of refactoring or dependency updates before implementing them, leading to faster feedback loops and more efficient build processes. This aids in improving development workflows by identifying bottlenecks.
