auto-ngtemplate-loader

Webpack loader that automatically requires AngularJS 1.x templates when templateUrl is encountered in JavaScript files. Version 3.1.2 drops Node.js 8 support. It works alongside ngtemplate-loader and html-loader to preprocess template paths. Key differentiator: eliminates manual require calls for templates by transforming templateUrl strings into require() statements at build time. Supports custom path resolution and variable naming to avoid conflicts. Recommended to run before transpilation. Maintained but mature, with infrequent releases.
