Request updates for webpack 5

As webpack 5 released, some of its dependents released updates.

npm view webpack-cli peerDependencies
{ webpack: '4.x.x || 5.x.x' }
npm view webpack-dev-server peerDependencies
{ webpack: '^4.0.0 || ^5.0.0' }

@purtuga/esm-webpack-plugin is not currently compatible with webpack 5 although it declares to be

npm view @purtuga/esm-webpack-plugin peerDependencies
{ webpack: '>= 4.0.0' }

In @purtuga\esm-webpack-plugin\esm-webpack-plugin.js

Error: Cannot find module ‘webpack/lib/MultiModule’

Additional Information:

• @purtuga/esm-webpack-plugin 1.4.0
• webpack 5.1.0

ftr, esm library output is not in webpack 5 (including the current 5.2.0 release). see https://github.com/webpack/webpack/issues/2933.

hopefully it’ll happen at some point, but that point is not now 😕.

@portuga, no worries. I think your position is reasonable wrt Webpack 5, anyway. For now I seem to have found another way, but wouldn’t rule out maybe contributing a patch if I get a rush of blood to the head (don’t hold your breath 😉).
