Error with using background-image: url('some.jpg');

I got an error after adding a css rule with backgroung-image: url(some.jpg). After searching a bit I fix it by adding file-loader (yarn add file-loader --dev) and adding this to webpack.config.js rules:
{
test: /\.(png|jpe?g|gif)$/i,
use: [
{
loader: 'file-loader',
},
],
},

It's working but I don't know if it's a good solution.

Start with webpack.config.js and the CSS rule using background-image: url(some.jpg); reproduce the reported asset-loading error. Determine whether the file-loader configuration is the repository-supported approach, then verify the recommended setup resolves the build error and document the result.
