Webpack is a religion aggressively evangelized by React JavaScript developers as the salvation for all programmer's sins.

Webpack programmers practice their cult worship by typing holy words into a "CLI" (command-line interface, like old MS-DOS prompts) sanctuary.

Webpack tech bros try to convert new programmers through a ritual hazing where they laugh at and humiliate a Junior Developer for not knowing how to configure Webpack.

Webpack is a religion established as an excuse for programmers to tell their boss that JavaScript needs to be compiled (xkcd comic strip, episode 303). The religion quickly evolved into the Priesthood of Webpack, a way for useless programmers to be ordained as clergy in order to defend their salary and position against new smarter and lower paid Junior Developers who actually ship value to real world users.

Webpack snowflakes get easily triggered when the unnecessary complexity of their religion is pointed out because it would mean they'd have to do real work, not just configuring their webpack builds all day long.
"Hey tech bro, do you use webpack for your builds and bundles?"
"No, I use a bash script instead, works in like 3 lines of code, no config."
"Oh, aren't you cute using your 90s technology, you just must not be smart enough to use a modern build system!"

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
