I've tried to install webpack globally with npm i webpack -g as suggested here but it did not help
I have successfully bundled a main.js file which got saved in the dist folder, this happend after i ran the webpack-cli command, if i make changes to the bundled files they will first bundle if i run webpack-cli again
