Webpack fails when testing extension

[OctaneInteractive]

Hi, I'm running this on Mac OS X 10.13.6 with Node v10.10.0.

Using the base installation of the template, I ran npm run dev and got a warning:

{ parser: "babylon" } is deprecated; we now treat it as { parser: "babel" }.

After that, making hot changes worked.

However, when:

1. I loaded the extension as unpacked at: "project/build";
2. clicked the button in the web browser;
3. and then clicked the "New tab" button, I got:

internal/streams/legacy.js:57
throw er; // Unhandled stream error in pipe.
^

Error: read ECONNRESET

Where the debug is:

I'm able to start Webpack up again, but it dies during testing, which is a shame.

I opened the DevTools in Chrome and found a lot of errors.

I got this working dropping by back to node v8.16.0

Interesting, but a downgrade wouldn't be viable for me.
