Unable to use underscore functions inside template?

[kyllle]

When I use this plugin and use an underscore function inside my template I get an error Uncaught ReferenceError: _ is not defined pointing to the _.each() being used in the template?

_ needs to be globally available for this to work. Can you try to add the following to your webpack config?

{
    plugins: [
        new webpack.ProvidePlugin({
            _: 'underscore'
        })
    ]
}

That's it, thanks for this!! I had originally added plugins inside the modules object.

@SpaceK33z Not sure why we can't use underscore functions inside underscore templates.

If underscore is what renders the templates, then is it not what evaluates the expressions or statements inside the templates, such as _.each()?
