Does anyone knows, how advanced DCE is?
If I would for example write something like that:

const val DEBUG = false

fun doSomething(debug : Boolean) {
    if(debug) {
        doSomeDebugStuff()
    }
}

Would DCE get rid of doSomeDebugStuff from output js? Would it work across libraries? Would it work if I would store debug as field of some class?

AFAIK Webpack can do this work in ES6

Also it can work in ES5 - check required
