For adding LICENSE, you can use webpack's own Banner Plugin.

For removing console.log, use webpack's UglifyjsWebpackPlugin and pass drop_console: false as follows

new webpack.optimize.UglifyJsPlugin({
    compress: {
        drop_console: true,
        // other Uglifyjs options
    },
    // other UglifyjsWebpackPlugin options
})

Somasundaram Ayyappan Is it possible to do the same but in a more general sense? So replace specific code that's meant for local testing with production code. So changing a variable name from localhostUrl to productionUrl for example?

You can use Define Plugin for that changing variable values. For using different modules in different env, you can use NormalModuleReplacementPlugin as follows

new webpack.NormalModuleReplacementPlugin(
  /some\/path\/config\.development\.js/,
  './config.production.js'
);
