title: Is there a webpack loader for replacing strings with values from property file
body: <p>I am a newbie to webpack. I am trying to write an AngularJS 2 website and have a requirement where I would like certain strings within my CSS / LESS / HTML / JS / TS files to be replaced with values taken from a properties file.</p>
  
  <p>My properties file would look something like this:</p>
  
  <p><strong>example.properties</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>branding.title=My Awesome Website
  support.telephoneNumber=+441111111111
  ...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And I would like to place tokens within my files in this format:</p>
  
  <p><strong>example.html</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;html&gt;
     &lt;head&gt;${branding.title}&lt;/head&gt;
     ...
  &lt;/html&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In the above I would like the loader to replace <strong>${branding.title}</strong> with <strong>My Awesome Website</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>Is there an existing webpack loader that will allow me to perform these substitutions as an initial step before building?</p>
  
  <p>I just need a token replacement loader of some form - I don't mind if the file containing the tokens and their replacement text is in a different format to the one I gave as an example above. Similarly I don't mind if the way in which the tokens are defnied within the files (e.g. <strong>${branding.title}</strong>) is different.</p>
