I followed the step of splitting the Scoreboard.js component but I keep losing state whenever I save the .js file

The page reloads after I save Scoreboard.js, so in my local environment this is not working like in the video.

Hi Julian,

What happens when you save the styles? Do you lose the state also? Could you maybe share your webpack config?

@bernardobonanca Hi,

When I save the styles I don't lose state.

This is my webpack.congif.js code

module.exports = {

  entry: './app.js',

  output: {
    //path: 'build',
    filename: 'bundle.js'
  },

  module: {
    loaders: [
      {
        test: /\.js$/,
        exclude: /node_modules/,
        loaders: ['react-hot-loader/webpack', 'babel-loader']
      },
      {
        loaders: ["style-loader", "css-loader", "sass-loader"],
        test: /\.scss$/
      }
    ]
  }

}
