A webpack plugin that removes build output folders and stale assets before and after builds. It cleans webpack's output.path directory on each successful rebuild.
Use cases
- clean dist folder before webpack build
- remove stale webpack assets on rebuild
- delete old build files automatically
- prevent hashed asset files from piling up
- dry-run cleanup of build directory
When to choose
- you use webpack 4+ and want automatic build folder cleanup
- you need to remove unused hashed assets between rebuilds
When to avoid
- you use webpack 5, which has built-in output.clean
- you don't use webpack as your bundler
