   Now you can start adding any Bootstrap components you want to use. Be sure to [check out the complete Webpack example project](https://github.com/twbs/examples/tree/main/webpack) for how to include additional custom Sass and optimize your build by importing only the parts of Bootstrap's CSS and JS that you need.

+## Production optimizations
+
+Depending on your setup, you may want to implement some additional security and speed optimizations useful for running the project in production. Note that these optimizations are not applied on [the Webpack example project](https://github.com/twbs/examples/tree/main/webpack) and are up to you to implement.

+### Extracting CSS
+
+The `style-loader` we configured above conveniently emits CSS into the bundle so that manually loading a CSS file in `dist/index.html` isn't necessary. This approach may not work with a strict Content Security Policy, however, and it may become a bottleneck in your application due to the large bundle size.
+
+To separate the CSS so that we can load it directly from `dist/index.html`, use the `mini-css-extract-loader` Webpack plugin.
+
+First, install the plugin:
+
+```sh
+npm install --save-dev mini-css-extract-plugin
+```
+
+Then instantiate and use the plugin in the Webpack configuration:
+
+```diff

+
+After running `npm run build` again, there will be a new file `dist/main.css`, which will contain all of the CSS imported by `src/js/main.js`. If you view `dist/index.html` in your browser now, the style will be missing, as it is now in `dist/main.css`. You can include the generated CSS in `dist/index.html` like this:

+
+### Extracting SVG files
+
+Bootstrap's CSS includes multiple references to SVG files via inline `data:` URIs. If you define a Content Security Policy for your project that blocks `data:` URIs for images, then these SVG files will not load. You can get around this problem by extracting the inline SVG files using Webpack's asset modules feature.
