I have a feeling the ecosystem is becoming, err, slightly less worse :) My react redux babel boilerplate has not changed in about a year and I strive to stay up to date. Once you can write a webpack.config.js without looking at the doc you're all set :)
100% agreed. Webpack 2 is going to be a fairly sizable change, but for the better. I've been following the webpack meeting notes, pretty excited to see where it's all headed.
