webpack creates a graph of all of your application's dependencies. The starting point of this graph is known as an _entry point_. The _entry point_ tells webpack _where to start_ and follows the graph of dependencies to know _what to bundle_. You can think of your application's _entry point_ as the **contextual root** or **the first file to kick off your app**. | ||

@TheLarkInn, what do you think of this change? This assumes that the reader knows what a "root node" of a dependency graph is. I'm not completely sure if everybody knows what that is? |
Yeah, it's probably best not to assume too much of the readers as not all are versed with graph theory. A good visualization would actually help a lot here. |
I agree with @bebraw, if we do remove content some sort of graphic I think would be really beneficial. |
Can you rebase against |
Can you resolve the conflicts and do the changes requested? Thanks. |
I'll close this for now. Feel free to rebase and re-open if/when you have time. |
Update how-to-write-a-loader.md
Guys, check this attempt to make the doc shorter and easier to read. I think it will improve the readability, as it removed some extra overhead without losing the important information.
If you think it's a good direction to move to, I can proceed with more edits.
