> ℹ️ `webpack-copy-plugin` is not designed to copy files generated from the build process; rather, it is to copy files that already exist in the source tree, as part of the build process.

> ℹ️ If you want `webpack-dev-server` to write files to the output directory during development, you can force it with the [`writeToDisk`](https://github.com/webpack/webpack-dev-middleware#writetodisk) option or the [`write-file-webpack-plugin`](https://github.com/gajus/write-file-webpack-plugin).
