Adding Sass to boilerplate requires updating webpack configs and adding necessary loaders.

1. To webpack.build.config.js and webpack.dev.config.js add new object to rules:

{
  test: /\.scss$/,
  use: [
    { loader: 'style-loader' },
    { loader: 'css-loader' },
    { loader: 'sass-loader' }],
  include: defaultInclude
}

2. Install additional loaders for sass, sass-loader and node-sass.

3. Rename all CSS file to .scss.

This boilerplate uses HTML Webpack Plugin to generate the HTML file of the app. Changing app title is possible only through webpack configs, webpack.build.config.js and webpack.dev.config.js. App title can be changed by adding objects of options.

In webpack.build.config.js:

plugins: [
  new HtmlWebpackPlugin({title: 'New app title '}),// Add this (line 41)
  new MiniCssExtractPlugin({
    // Options similar to the same options in webpackOptions.output
    // both options are optional
    filename: 'bundle.css',
    chunkFilename: '[id].css'
  }),
  new webpack.DefinePlugin({
    'process.env.NODE_ENV': JSON.stringify('production')
  }),
  new BabiliPlugin()
],

In webpack.dev.config.js:

plugins: [
  new HtmlWebpackPlugin({title: 'New app title '}),// Add this (line 36)
  new webpack.DefinePlugin({
    'process.env.NODE_ENV': JSON.stringify('development')
  })
],
