This is a major upgrade which features an upgrade to webpack 5, switching from PostCSS to Sass, and lots of general cleanup.

  • All dependencies updated, including webpack 4 -> 5.
  • Offline functionality (service workers) has been removed for many reasons, the biggest of which being that none of the major plugins have been updated for webpack 5, even though it's been out for months now. I may bring it back sometime in the future, but I've always been on the fence about adding/keeping it because the majority of people using this boilerplate probably don't need service workers -- and if they do, they probably know how to add them.
  • PostCSS has been replaced with Sass. PostCSS has been the biggest pain point in maintaining this repo because of the number of plugins it relies on just to be viable. I've accepted that there's no reason to keep subjecting myself to this when Sass offers everything I want/need out of the box. This change reduced the number of dependencies and the amount of boilerplate in our webpack configs.
