Webpack-dev-server serves a directory list instead of the app page

Question

I can only see the actual app under /public.

The configs in webpack.config.js are below:

var path    = require(\'path\         


        

Answer 1

If you're using webpack's dev server you can pass in options to use /public as a base directory.

devServer: {
    publicPath: "/",
    contentBase: "./public",
    hot: true
},

See the webpack configuration docs, and specifically the webpack dev server docs for more options and general information.
