webpack-dev-server won't run about mfe-starter

[PatrickJS]

@Blackbaud-DanHamlin could you delete node_modules/ and install it again. In the meantime you can use the express server with npm run express but make sure you install the deps first with npm run express-install

Thanks, express did work. Removing node_modules and reinstalling didn’t fix my problem with webpack.

I found the culprit - it seems that if NODE_ENV is not defined, then the environment plugins lookup produce a null to the plugins array in the webpack.config.js. Adding the definition to explicity default to development if NODE_ENV is not defined fixed it.

@noxxious thanks for looking into it 👍 can you make a Pull-Request?

var NODE_ENV = process.env.NODE_ENV || 'development';

[Blackbaud-DanHamlin]

great, i wonder if those npm scripts for setting the environment aren't actually working then?
