body: <p>Everything running fine, but could not able to find where is my dist folder.I am using publicPath as per documentation, still dist folder seems to coming from memory.</p>
  
  <p>This might be small issue, i am new to webpack. Any help would work</p>
  
  <p>Below is my webpack.config.js file</p>
  
  <pre><code>var path = require('path')
  var webpack = require('webpack')
  var HtmlWebpackPlugin = require('html-webpack-plugin')
  
  module.exports = {
      entry: "./src/index.js",
      output: {
          path: path.join(__dirname,'dist'),
          filename: "[name].js",
          publicPath:'/dist'
      },
      plugins: [
          new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
            template: './src/index.html'
          })
      ],
      module: {
          loaders: [
              {
                  test: /\.css$/, loader: "style-loader!css-loader"
              },
              {
                  test: /\.(eot|woff|woff2|ttf|svg|png|jpg)$/,
                  loader: 'url-loader?limit=30000&amp;name=[name]-[hash].[ext]'
              },
              {
                  test: /\.js$/,
                  exclude: /(node_modules|bower_components)/,
                  loader: 'babel',
                  query: {

                  }
              }
          ]
      },
      devServer: {
          historyApiFallback: true,
