3. Deploy for production
4. Monitoring and validation after production

Question 2

Tree shaking

Answer 2

Removing dead or unused code from bundles to improve performance and efficiency (since there’s less code to load)

Question 3

Answer 3

Optimizing your code in preparation for deployment. Combining and minimizing your files into one file/a few files to reduce HTTP requests

Question 4

Efficient because it’s lightweight

Question 6

Webpack

Answer 6

A bundler suitable for larger projects because it’s highly configurable

Question 7

Rollup

Answer 7

A bundler suitable for smaller projects or libraries because it bundles small pieces of code into large application and is simpler

Question 8

Answer 8

Containerization platform that amplifies (the concept of) containerization and simplified deployment testing and dev workflow

Question 9
