… based on version 4/5 This change adds helpers to allow the Webpack configuration to be automatically adjusted based on the Webpack version in use. These helpers are then used to provide configuration compatibility for Webpack 5 which has several differences to the Webpack 4 configuration. Behavior is maintained between the two versions so that external option behavior is not altered.
…5 license extraction The license extraction plugin is currently causing errors when building/serving with Webpack 5. This change temporarily disables the option when Webpack 5 is used until further investigation can take place and to unblock initial Webpack 5 support.
The Webpack 5 filesystem watch function has a different return object type than Webpack 4. This change adjusts the behavior based on the used Webpack version.

Will the 2020-10-10 release of webpack 5 imply a new version of angular-cli so as to fix a year-long chain-dependency deprecation issue? Angular Cli is actually unbuildable on mac 10.15 (catalina) as it stands today. This, in my view, should make it into v10.1.5 and that be released on the day ( 2020-10-10 ) |

This change enables experimental support for Webpack v5 in the Angular CLI. At this point, we don't recommend using Webpack v5 for production usage.
By default, the Angular CLI uses Webpack v4. To enable Webpack v5, use
yarnas your package manager and add the following top-level property topackage.json:Please note that the support is experimental, and webpack v5 is still in beta. Some Angular CLI features and options are partially supported, and new prereleases of webpack v5 may contain breaking changes. You may temporarily see Webpack deprecation warnings, which we'll fix over time.
