Struggling To Remove Fouc (flash Of Unstyled Content) When Using Webpack

I have bundled my app code using webpack 2. Used require statement on my main module to embed an SCSS file. require('./styles/styles.scss'); While things work fine in all browsers

Solution 1:

Right now your styles are baked into the JS files. In your case, the browser takes a while to parse the javascript and only after processing it can apply the styles to the page. That is causing the FOUC.

To cope with this problem ExtractTextPlugin was developed. Basically what it does is it takes out the css specified and puts it in a separate css file. A basic configuration would look like:

constplugin=newExtractTextPlugin({filename:'[name].[contenthash:8].css',});module: {
      rules: [ {
          test:/\.css$/,
          use:plugin.extract({
            use:'css-loader',
            fallback:'style-loader',
          })
       }]
},plugins: [ plugin ]

Then you must attach the generated file to your HTML page if you're not using html-webpack-plugin. By linking generated file in section you will get rid of FOUC.
