How do you find the current port being used by the dev server?

See original GitHub issue

If you happen to close the browser window that the start command opens I’m not sure of a way to find the current port without restarting the server. Might be nice to put it somewhere in the console output after the server has started.

Yeah, it should be shown when you fix those warnings. @gaearon should we print the listening message if there are warnings?

Hmm, probably also show the overlay on warnings too, cause usually I don’t check the terminal when the warnings happened
