Making local dev servers w Webpack 4

To use an environment variable in webpack, set module.exports to a function which returns the config object.

Only a function can take in env and argv as args, and you'll need those.

Then use defineWebpackPlugin to set environment variables.

Remember that Webpack 4 is "no config"; just set mode when you startup webpack dev-versus-prod in your package.json.

Intended audience(s) include:
