Webpacker works on branch master.

Webpacker doesn't work on the "back-end" branch.

I didn't touch anything javascript related between the branch's creation and now.

Why. Why why why why why.

$ rails new [old side project but this time I will finish it (sikes)]
$ cd [project]
[ Inserting "gem 'webpacker' ~> '3.0.0'" in Gemfile ]
$ bundle install
$ rails webpacker:install
$ rails webpacker:install:react

node_modules weights 97.4 mo 🙄

Day 6: Using webpacker for rails and react, still cant fucking figure out why am I getting one freaking STYLED COMPONENT error. As the great @AlexDeLarge said "Fuck you, Webpack, I hope your inventor dies in a fucking hotel fire!"

Rails 6 needs Webpacker needs Yarn, Needs NodeJS, needs Blah Blah Blah. Hello folks. Web dev in 2020 is crappier than it was in 2017!

How much of a fucking faff is it trying to deploy a rails app to ElasticBeanstalk?!

Brand new instance and it's got no fucking clue what Bundler is, installing gems (looking at you, Nokogiri,) is about as difficult as pissing stones and don't get me fucking started on Webpacker and asset pre-compilation.

DEPLOYMENT SHOULD NOT BE DIFFICULT.

"webpacker-dev-server" keeps dying, long lives "webpacker --watch"
