babel-plugin-webpack-loaders

A Babel 6 plugin that allows using webpack loaders during Babel transpilation, enabling server-side use of CSS modules, image imports, and other webpack loader features without a full webpack build. Version 0.9.0 (last updated 2016) is the current stable release. Maintained primarily for legacy projects; the author strongly recommends migrating to modern alternatives like Jest with moduleNameMapper. Key differentiator: enables isomorphic/universal apps to run on the server without a separate build step. However, it's effectively deprecated in favor of Jest and babel-jest for testing, and Next.js or other frameworks for server-side rendering.
