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. 🐛 🐞 👀
