Webpack Middleware for Express/Browsersync

webpack-middleware is a wrapper that enables running the Webpack compiler as a middleware for Connect-compatible servers like Express.js or Browsersync. It serves compiled assets from memory, offering faster rebuilds during development without writing files to disk. This specific package, at version 1.5.1, is a fork of `webpack-dev-middleware` designed to better support isomorphic (mixed web/Node.js) bundles. However, it has not been updated since 2016 and is tied to Webpack versions less than 3, making it incompatible with modern Webpack 4 or 5. Users should generally prefer the actively maintained `webpack-dev-middleware` for current projects.
