 ### Recommend
 
 For `production` builds, it's recommended to extract the CSS from your bundle being able to use parallel loading of CSS/JS resources later on.
+
 This can be achieved by using the [mini-css-extract-plugin](https://github.com/webpack-contrib/mini-css-extract-plugin), because it creates separate css files.
+
 For `development` mode (including `webpack-dev-server`) you can use [style-loader](https://github.com/webpack-contrib/style-loader), because it injects CSS into the DOM using multiple `<style>
</style>` and works faster.

 ### Separating `Interoperable CSS`-only and `CSS Module` features
 
 The following setup is an example of allowing `Interoperable CSS` features only (such as `:import` and `:export`) without using further `CSS Module` functionality by setting the `mode` option for all files that do not match the `*.module.scss` naming convention. This is for reference, as having `ICSS` features applied to all files was default `css-loader` behavior before v4.

 Meanwhile, all files matching `*.module.scss` are treated as `CSS Modules` in this example.
 
 An example case is assumed where a project requires canvas drawing variables to be synchronized with CSS - canvas drawing uses the same color (set by color name in JavaScript) as HTML background (set by class name in CSS).
