I'd love to present on this one. Lately I've been trying to get more familiar with webpack 4 myself, and it's been an awesome experience. We could go through the basics of setting up a webpack config for a small vanilla js app and explore topics like:

• asset management for css, images, fonts, csv files, and xml files
• output management to dynamically create the index.html file and to clean the dist directory with each build
• separate webpack configs for development and production
• development servers
• code splitting with lazy loading and dynamic imports
• separating vendor code into its own bundle
• bundle analysis
• tree shaking

@kensnyder I'm not sure if you're the one to reach out to, but I haven't heard from anyone yet on this thread. If you're looking for a speaker to present sometime in September, I'd love to present on webpack. I could meet in Orem, Lehi, or SLC; any location is fine.
