Answer 1

1. Enable source-maps via webpack

   ...
   devtool: 'source-map'

   module: {
     loaders: [
       ...
       {
         test: /\.scss$/,
         loaders: [
           'style-loader',
           'css-loader?sourceMap',
           'sass-loader?sourceMap'
         ]
       }, {
         test: /\.css$/,
         loaders: [
           "style-loader",
           "css-loader?sourceMap"
         ]
       },
       ...
     ]
   }
   

3. Use extract text plugin to extract your css into a file.

   ...
   plugins: [
     ...
     new ExtractTextPlugin('file.css')
   ]
