*Context* refers to a [require with an expression](/guides/dependency-management/#require-with-expression) such as `require('./locale/' + name + '.json')`. When encountering such an expression, webpack infers the directory (`'./locale/'`) and a regular expression (`/^.*\.json$/`). Since the `name` is not known at compile time, webpack includes every file as module in the bundle.
