Research direction

Start with the unchecked items in webpack.config.js, including the SCSS, Sass loader, Babel loader, and module-resolution references. Review package.json and the listed documentation pages, then identify the remaining Calypso components and submodule work. Done means the remaining checklist items are completed, the submodule and Calypso references are removed, and the Node version is upgraded.
