# Phoenix Webpack Generator

**Inelegantly** replace Brunch with Webpack. This generator will forcefully
remove Brunch as your asset build tool and replace it with a simple Webpack
setup.

I do not recommend using this on an existing project. In such a scenario, do
check out this [super easy to follow tutorial](http://manukall.de/2015/05/01/automatically-building-your-phoenix-assets-with-webpack/)
by [Manuel Kallenbach](https://twitter.com/manukall).

## Installation

Create a new Phoenix project and add this to your `mix.exs` dependencies:

```elixir
defp deps do
  [{:phoenix, "~> 0.15"},
   {:phoenix_ecto, "~> 0.5"},
   {:postgrex, ">= 0.0.0"},
   {:phoenix_html, "~> 1.1"},
   {:phoenix_live_reload, "~> 0.4", only: :dev},
   {:cowboy, "~> 1.0"},
   {:phoenix_gen_webpack, "~> 0.1.0", only: :dev}]
end
```

Now run:

```
mix deps.get
mix phoenix.gen.webpack
npm install
mix phoenix.server
```
