I have an app that has a dependency on a few bigger libraries and ember addons. From those dependencies, I use a very small subset of functions and components so I was surprised that in the final output is everything. I would like to stripp off everything that's not used.
Looking over the internet, I wasn't able to find any useful resource about this topic. What's the recommended setup for dead code elimination or tree shaking for Ember app in 2017?
PS: I know that Tree shaking is a bit different than dead code elimination, but the purpose is basically the same.
At the moment there is not an easy way to do so if the addon you use doesn't help with it. The Ember-CLI folks are working on making it easy to swap in any bundle step you want (to experiment with Webpack, Rollup, etc), but at the moment Ember-CLI does a fairly simplistic concatenation/minification.
More information about the work in progress can be found here: https://github.com/ember-cli/rfcs/pull/110
