Kyle proposes the use of webpack in his React proof of concept (Bug
17297 https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17297).
Since then I've been investigating and learning it and it looks like
it might be a good solution for us.

Here at the Hackfest in Marseille we had a discussion about React. I
don't think I can say that we came to a final decision, but I think we
are strongly leaning in the direction of going forward with it.

The decision we did make was that we would go ahead and introduce a
build process for front-end assets--probably with webpack. I'm going
to work on a patch to demonstrate the workflow, probably one which
begins with some simple minification tasks.
