+## Code Splitting
+
+Instead of downloading the entire app before users can use it, code splitting allows you to split your code into small chunks which you can then load on demand.
+
+This project setup supports code splitting via [dynamic `import()`](http://2ality.com/2017/01/import-operator.html#loading-code-on-demand). Its [proposal](https://github.com/tc39/proposal-dynamic-import) is in stage 3. The `import()` function-like form takes the module name as an argument and returns a [`Promise`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Promise) which always resolves to the namespace object of the module.
+
+Here is an example:
+
+### `moduleA.js`
+
+```js
+const moduleA = 'Hello';
+
+export { moduleA };
+```
+### `App.js`
+
+```js
+import React, { Component } from 'react';
+
+class App extends Component {
+  handleClick = () => {
+    import('./moduleA')
+      .then(({ moduleA }) => {
+        // Use moduleA
+      })
+      .catch(err => {
+        // Handle failure
+      });
+  };
+
+  render() {
+    return (
+      <div>
+        <button onClick={this.handleClick}>Load</button>
+      </div>
+    );
+  }
+}
+
+export default App;
+```
+
+This will make `moduleA.js` and all its unique dependencies as a separate chunk that only loads after the user clicks the 'Load' button.
+
+You can also use it with `async` / `await` syntax if you prefer it.

 ## Adding a Stylesheet
 
 This project setup uses [Webpack](https://webpack.js.org/) for handling all assets. Webpack offers a custom way of “extending” the concept of `import` beyond JavaScript. To express that a JavaScript file depends on a CSS file, you need to **import the CSS from the JavaScript file**:
