# Webpack Promise Shim Plugin
## The problem
Webpack, in generated builds, uses promises for things like lazy-loading, chunking, etc.
Problem is, it relies on `window.Promise` being set, which ain't the case in IE or other older browsers. You can polyfill `window.Promise`, but that's a bad idea if you're trying to run on 3rd party domains you don't own.
This plugin allows you to specify your own promise polyfill for webpack to use, without shimming `window.Promose`
## Install
```bash
npm install --save-dev webpack-promise-shim-plugin
```
## Use
```javascript
const { WebpackPromiseShimPlugin } = require('webpack-promise-shim-plugin');
...
plugins: [
new WebpackPromiseShimPlugin({
module: 'zalgo-promise/src',
key: 'ZalgoPromise'
}),
]
```
## Notes
- Only testing with Webpack 3, your mileage may very on other versions
- Only works right now in conjunction with `webpack.NamedModulesPlugin`
