Separate Develop and Production files in npm or webpack

I have seen in react native project, we use index.android.js and index.ios.js to separate index.js file for android and ios.

Now is it possible for develop and production environment to separate their files ?? I mean does webpack or a plugin or maybe node have any ability to separate them like index.develop.js and index.js (for production) and require it like require('index') ?

Yes sure, using process.env.NODE_ENV you can dynamically require():

  const module = process.env.NODE_ENV === "production" 
    ? require("./production")
     : require("./development");

Then if production mode is on, the comparison will be inlined, and the require("./development") will be optimized away.
