A webpack plugin that automatically injects <link rel='preload'> and <link rel='prefetch'> tags for asynchronous JavaScript chunks into HTML generated by html-webpack-plugin. It simplifies wiring up lazy-loaded, hash-named chunks for better page performance.

Use cases

  • automatically add preload links for async webpack chunks
  • wire up lazy-loaded routes with resource hints
  • prefetch webpack chunks with hashed filenames
  • improve initial page load performance with preload
  • inject resource hints into html-webpack-plugin output

When to choose

  • you maintain a legacy webpack 4 project already using html-webpack-plugin and need preload/prefetch wiring

When to avoid

  • starting a new project - use the maintained fork at vuejs/preload-webpack-plugin instead
  • you are not using webpack with html-webpack-plugin
  • you need webpack 5 support or active maintenance
