I get a web pack related error when I try to run "npm run dev" as follows 'webpack-dev-server' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I've attached the screenshot of the error from the terminal. As well as a screenshot of the generated log.

Could you please check the package.json file whether it is installed or not.

If you find webpack-dev-server present under the development dependencies but still its not working try doing an npm install to reinstall the missing packages.

If not you could simply do

npm install webpack-dev-server --save-dev

executing this would save the package under node modules directory.

you could also configure webpack dev server to a custom command under scripts in package.json

"scripts": {
   "start:dev": "webpack-dev-server"
}
