Babel Minify Webpack Plugin

A webpack plugin that uses babel-minify (formerly babili) to minify JavaScript bundles. Current stable version is 0.3.1, released March 2018. Last release was a bugfix for webpack 4 tapable deprecation warnings. The plugin operates on entire chunks rather than individual files, enabling optimizations not possible with loader-based minification. However, it is slower than using babel-loader with the minify preset. The package has narrow engine requirements (Node 4.3–5.0 or >=5.10) and is essentially in maintenance mode, with no releases since 2018 and webpack 5 not officially supported. Alternatives include terser-webpack-plugin and babel-loader with preset-minify.
