Should I use webpack UglifyJSPlugin when using HtmlWebpackPlugin minify.minifyJS?

Question

If you deep look at HtmlWebpackPlugin documentation in the mimification topic, you will see that you can set a custom minifier options here

In minifyJS, it says

Minify JavaScript in script elements and event attributes (uses UglifyJS)

Does this means that in my webpack plugins I don't need to use UglifyJSPlugin?
What is better, use UglifyJSPlugin, set minifyJS: true or use both?

Yes.

All will produce exactly the same output. minifyJS: true is probably the easiest way though.
