This Webpack plugin ensures npm install forces a project rebuild.
We’re not sure why this isn't Webpack's default behavior.
See #186 for details.

var path = require('path');
var WatchMissingNodeModulesPlugin = require('react-dev-utils/WatchMissingNodeModulesPlugin');
 
// Webpack config 
module.exports = {
  // ... 
  plugins: [
    // ... 
    // If you require a missing module and then `npm install` it, you still have 
    // to restart the development server for Webpack to discover it. This plugin 
    // makes the discovery automatic so you don't have to restart. 
    // See https://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app/issues/186 
    new WatchMissingNodeModulesPlugin(path.resolve('node_modules'))
  ],
  // ... 
}
