+            A valid use-case would be if you have <code>devtool: "source-maps"</code> in your webpack config and wanted source maps to be created for the DLL bundle as well.
+            However, this <strong>does not</strong> inherit plugins from the parent config and inheriting loaders are buggy too(see <a href="https://github.com/asfktz/autodll-webpack-plugin/issues/37">#37</a>).
+            It can also be a function to inherit only the desired properties.
+            <pre>function inherit(webpackConfig) {
+  // Return object with desired properties.
+}
+</pre>
+            To see it action, <a href="https://github.com/asfktz/autodll-webpack-plugin/tree/master/experiments/inherit">check out the example</a>.
