To create a subdirectory with webpack, you can follow these steps:

  1. In your webpack configuration file (usually named webpack.config.js), define a new output path for the subdirectory. Here's an example of how you can create a subdirectory named "dist" within your output folder:

module.exports = {
  output: {
    path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'build/dist'),
    filename: 'bundle.js'
  }
};


  1. Make sure to import the 'path' module at the beginning of your webpack configuration file:
1
const path = require('path');


  1. Now when you run webpack, it will output the bundled files in the "dist" subdirectory within your output folder.

  1. You can access your bundled files in the "dist" subdirectory in the specified output folder.


By following these steps, you can create a subdirectory with webpack for organizing your bundled files.
