Preload on the webPreferences not working

[exiadb]

in my electron-webpack.json

        "extraEntries": [
            "@/preload.js"
        ],
        "sourceDirectory": "src/main"
    }

and in my main process,
in src/main/create-window.js

const win = new BrowserWindow({
    minWidth: 1024,
    minHeight: 768,
    width: 1024,
    height: 768,
    webPreferences: {
      nodeIntegration: isDev,
      preload: path.join(__dirname, './preload.js')
    },
    show: false
  })

however after I loaded the dev app, the script is not being loaded.

Thanks, @walleXD it started working now!

 Electron -------------------

  path.resolve(__dirname, 'preload.js') /Users/***/electron-webpack-quick-start/src/main/preload.js

┗ ----------------------------
┏ Electron -------------------

  path.join(__dirname, 'preload.js') src/main/preload.js
