reactjswebpackreact-loadable

Should I use react-loadable or loadable-components for code splitting?


I want to split my react code with server side rendering. To do that I have two options.

loadable-components

React documentation suggested to use loadable-components for server rendered apps. But it has very few NPM weekly downloads.

react-loadable

NPM weekly downloads of this package is very high compared to the previous one but according to loadable-components documentation this package is not maintained any more.

react-loadable was the recommended way for React code splitting for a long time. However, today it is not maintained any more and it is not compatible with Webpack v4+ and Babel v7+. Documentation Link

Please guild me with proper package.


Solution

  • Even though documentation of react-loadable says that react-loadable is not compatible with Webpack v4+ and Babel v7+, I used react-loadable and it worked. I did not face any issue in both server and client side rendering applications.
