This project doesn't include any webpacks by default. Running the webpack-dev-server is currently broken.

TypeError: Class constructor ServeCommand cannot be invoked without 'new'

This has probably since webpacker was upgraded to v5 and webpack-dev-server was upgraded to v4 since

webpack-dev-server is not compatible with Webpacker 5.x. You'll need Webpacker 6.0 for compatibility. Otherwise go back to webpacker-dev-server 3.x. -- rails/rails#43062 (comment)

It ALSO looks like we didn't properly migrate the webpack / babel configuration as part of the webpack 4 upgrade: https://webpacker-docs.netlify.app/docs/v4-upgrade.

This particular PR is going to require a bit of surgery to put the plumbing right, and may be open a while.

It's also worth mentioning that webpacker has been retired. New Rails applications use https://github.com/rails/jsbundling-rails. I'll open an issue to eventually migrate this project to the new tooling - EDIT: see #148. However, we may want to continue along this upgrade path so we can make use of the webpacker 5 => jsbundling upgrade/replacement path guides
