I'm trying to load a favicon using the index.html that is the template for the HtmlWebpackPlugin but it's not loading.
That is how my Webpack config looks like:
'use strict'
const webpack = require('webpack')
const { join, resolve } = require('path')
const HtmlWebpackPlugin = require('html-webpack-plugin')
module.exports = {
devtool: 'cheap-module-eval-source-map',
entry: join(__dirname, 'src', 'index'),
output: {
filename: 'bundle.js',
path: resolve(__dirname, 'dist')
},
module: {
rules: [
{
test: /\.js$/,
exclude: /node_modules/,
loader: 'babel-loader'
},
{
test: /\.s?css$/,
exclude: /node_modules/,
use: ['style-loader', 'css-loader', 'sass-loader']
}
]
},
resolve: {
extensions: ['.js']
},
devServer: {
contentBase: resolve(__dirname, 'build')
},
plugins: [
new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
template: join(__dirname, 'public', 'index.html')
})
]
}
And that is my index.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no">
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico">
<title>React App</title>
</head>
<body>
<noscript>
You need to enable JavaScript to run this app.
</noscript>
<div id="root"></div>
</body>
</html>

HTMLWebpackPlugin will not parse the HTML to find your resources. You'll need to include it like this in your template:
index.html
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="${require('./favicon.ico')}">
You'll also need to include file-loader for your .ico file:
webpack.config.js
{
test: /\.ico$/,
loader: 'file-loader'
}
