The Complete React Developer Course (with Hooks and Redux) - Setting up Webpack with SCSS

This video tutorial guides viewers through setting up Webpack to work with SCSS files. It begins by explaining the benefits of using SCSS over regular CSS, such as variables and mixins. The tutorial then details the process of configuring Webpack to handle CSS files using CSS and style loaders. It also covers importing styles into JavaScript files and applying them to the DOM. Finally, the video demonstrates how to configure Webpack to compile SCSS into CSS, allowing for more advanced styling capabilities.
