Update README.md

Excluding the node_modules folder might be easier in some contexts.

[AriaFallah]

@philiiiiiipp the reason why I was tentative about including the exclude option is that there is actually a more performance overhead to exclusion than inclusion. It's easier to tell webpack where your files are rather than where they aren't because then webpack has to actually look for your files.

But given that, I'll merge this if you show me an example of when exclude is the only option because I've personally never come across that case.

The only thing I can ever think of is that if you don't have a src folder where you keep all your files, but in that case the easier option would just to be to make a src folder.

[philiiiiiipp]

I understand your concern, but I don't think that there is a difference between exclude and include in terms of performance since webpack will apply the regex to every file/folder regardless of you using exclude or include:

exclude: A condition that must not be met
include: A condition that must be met

Regarding the src folder, I would argue that most server side nodejs code does not have a src folder. At least it's the (somewhat standard) way that express.js will generate for you. But this is of course more of a personal preference thing.

Replace Alternative with Alternatively

@philiiiiiipp I guess I don't see any harm. Please just fix that one typo and I'll merge.

[philiiiiiipp]

Ok cool. Btw. awesome work!

@philiiiiiipp I appreciate it.

Hopefully, when I find the time, there will be a new version in gitbook format, that covers a lot more, and has helpful illustrations that I'll draw. I actually got halfway done around 2 weeks ago, but I have been short on time so it's been shelved.

[philiiiiiipp]

Cool stuff, I am going to have an eye out for that :-)
