Description
Running the demo, the default URL/IP address is local host, but the program actually startts on 127.0.0.1
Changing Launch.json to that number makes it run 'out of the box' (localhost seems to be a problem on chrome)
"url": "http://127.0.0.1:8888",
Note:
Running the program, output is:
webpack-dev-server --progress --profile --colors
10% building modules 1/1 modules 0 active
Project is running at http://127.0.0.1:8888/
