Hello!

My name is Elnard. I am from Kyrgyzstan, but now I study at Purdue 
University in the US. My major is Computer Science. I would like to 
participate in GSoC for Django project. 

I would like to fix this issue: Replace Form Media Class 
<https://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/SummerOfCode2018#ReplaceFormMediaClass>
. 
My general idea is to create a template for django startapp that will 
create an additional folder with webpack configuration file and 
package.json. Webpack will be preconfigured to minify and transpile JS and 
preprocess LESS and SASS. Syntax similar to Media class syntax can be used 
to provide entry points for webpack. All files generated by webpack will be 
moved to static files folder. As I understand, it is possible to override 
ready method to do all necessary actions before the start of the 
application.

Pros:

   1. Webpack has a lot of plugins and good documentation. It is easy to 
   modify webpack config.
   2. NPM for js package management

Cons:

   1. People will have to install node and npm, but only if they want to.
