Updates

  • Fancy logging; webpack-log is now used for logging to the terminal (webpack-dev-middleware was already using this).
  • The logLevel option is added for more fine-grained control over the logging.

Bugfixes

  • MultiCompiler was broken with webpack 4.
  • Fix deprecation warnings caused by webpack 4. Note that you will still see some deprecation warnings because webpack-dev-middleware has not been updated yet.

Updates

  • Breaking change: webpack v4 is now supported. Older versions of webpack are not supported.
  • Breaking change: drops support for Node.js v4, going forward we only support v6+ (same as webpack).
  • webpack-dev-middleware updated to v2 (see changes).

Bugfixes

  • After starting webpack-dev-server with an error in your code, it would not reload the page after fixing that error (#1317).
  • DynamicEntryPlugin is now supported correctly (#1319).

Huge thanks to all the contributors!

Please note that webpack-serve will eventually be the successor of webpack-dev-server. The core features already work so if you're brave enough give it a try!

v3.0.0-beta.1 Pre-release
Pre-release

This beta release differs a lot with the earlier alpha versions.

The previous alpha versions dropped a lot of features and supported less browsers, in an effort to get webpack-dev-server back to its core.
These efforts have been moved to webpack-serve, and instead this major version of webpack-dev-version will focus on webpack v4 compatibility.

The changelog below is compared to the latest v2 version of webpack-dev-server:

  • Support for webpack v4.
  • webpack-dev-middleware updated to v2 (see changes).
  • Drops support for Node.js v4, going forward we only support v6+ (same as webpack).

We need your feedback! Please test this release. 🐛 🐞 👀
