A deprecated webpack plugin that uses UglifyJS to minify JavaScript bundles. It has been replaced by terser-webpack-plugin and should not be used for new projects.

Use cases

  • minify javascript bundles in webpack 4
  • compress js output with uglify-js
  • configure webpack optimization minimizer
  • filter which webpack chunks get minified
  • cache minification results in webpack builds

When to choose

  • maintaining a legacy webpack 4 project already using this plugin
  • you specifically need UglifyJS as the minifier for compatibility reasons

When to avoid

  • starting any new webpack project
  • using webpack 5 or later
  • you need ES6+ minification support
  • you want an actively maintained minifier
