  }
};

and .babelrc

{
  "presets": ["env", "stage-0", "react"],
  "plugins": ["add-module-exports", "transform-decorators-legacy", "transform-runtime"]
}

All files is compiling but in the end css isn't loaded.

Please help me.

I've tried load style using the pug template but also didn't work

check https://github.com/BjornMelgaard/react-chrome-extension-boilerplate (though it is in progress, I've successfully updated dependencies)

@BjornMelgaard great work. I don't want the auth setup so it is giving me problems when I try to remove that and I would rather avoid digging through all the changes you made. Is anyone working on upgrading the base version to webpack 3? I noticed the comments above from @rrfaria - did you get it working?

[dvdschwrtz-zz]

@BjornMelgaard Ok, after a small break and some focus, I got it working after taking auth out but there are lots of issues I am having using the syntax I want with react which is pretty seamless in the original. I will go back to version 1 and maybe we can eventually upgrade to 3 off the standard version. I will take a look. Am not sure how long it will take

[dvdschwrtz-zz]

For the upgrade to webpack 3, I have a couple of questinos about the current configuration. Why is the inject script hot reloading turned off? Is this because of the iframe? Also, I am not familiar with the hot reloading internals or changes since webpack 1. Do we still need the replace folder with webpack/replace/JsonpMainTemplate.runtime.js and webpack/replace/process-update.js. If so, will these work with the new react-hot-loader? I can dig into this more but dont have a ton of time for this right now, so if someone knows the answer it would be very helpful! Thanks :)

[rrfaria]

This one has webpack 3 configuration
https://github.com/ayastreb/bandwidth-hero

maybe we can analyse and use those webpack setups

[rrfaria]

this one is a very good upgrade

https://github.com/wkw/react-chrome-extension-boilerplate

but now I have to know how to upgrade to react 16 and webpack 4.6

[yjiq150]

Check this out. I updated it to use React 16/Webpack 4

I just made a PR for the same problem today here.
