https://github.com/webpack/webpack-dev-server/blob/master/lib/utils/DevServerPlugin.js#L132 this code for webpack@4, no browserslist target in webpack v4, for webpack@5 we use https://github.com/webpack/webpack-dev-server/blob/master/lib/utils/DevServerPlugin.js#L131, webpack-dev-server v3 has some limitations with webpack@5, we are working on stable webpack-dev-server v4, release will be soon
