How to use it

In your application, ensure you output the stats.json, from `BundleAnalyzerPlugin'

// webpack.config.js
const {BundleAnalyzerPlugin} = require('webpack-bundle-analyzer')

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
  ...plugins,
     new BundleAnalyzerPlugin({
      // generate the stats.json file
      generateStatsFile: true,
    })
  ]
}
