Developing with Webpack 3 and hotloading

[Simon]

I've just upgraded the dev environment I use for my professional work to Webpack 3 (+ SCSS and Bootstrap 4). The pack is open source if anyone else wants to use it too.

Thank you so much. I've been looking into the hot loader, and wasn't quite able to figure out why hot-loader kept losing state on compile errors.

Apparently, this is needed (as pointed out in your webpack.js file)

new webpack.NoEmitOnErrorsPlugin()

hot-loading is such a productivity boon! :-)

If you have any extra webpack goodness that it would make sense to add to my starter, feel free to submit a PR.
