+#### `new webpackEnvDefinePlugin({regex: string, customVariables: Object.<string, string>})`
+
+This webpack plugin grabs environment variables that follows a specified regex and injects them into the application 
+using the webpack DefinePlugin.
+In addition, the plugin allows defining custom environment variables to be injected.
+
+To use first reference it in your webpack config:
+
+  ```js
+  var EnvDefinePlugin = require('react-dev-utils/webpackEnvDefinePlugin');
+  ```
+
+and define it as a plugin in the webpack config plugin section:
+
+ ```js
+  plugins: [
+     ...
+     new EnvDefinePlugin({
+       // Grab MY_PREFIX_* environment variables
+       regex: /^MY_PREFIX_/i,
+       customVariables: {
+         // Useful for determining whether we’re running in production mode.
+         // Most importantly, it switches React into the correct mode.
+         'MY_ENV_VAR': JSON.stringify(
+           process.env.MY_ENV_VAR || 'default'
+         )
+       }
+     }),
+     ...
+  ]
+ ```
