webpack.config.js

/* === dont forget to import scss to main.js file === */
/* ===> import './main.scss'; <=== */

var path = require("path");

module.exports = {
  entry: "./main.js",
  output: {
    path: path.resolve(__dirname, "dist"),
    filename: "bundle.js",
    publicPath: "/dist"
  },
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.js$/,
        use: {
          loader: "babel-loader",
          options: { presets: ["es2015"] }
        }
      },
      {
        test: /\.scss$/,
        use: [
          {
            loader: "style-loader" // creates style nodes from JS strings
          },
          {
            loader: "css-loader" // translates CSS into CommonJS
          },
          {
            loader: "sass-loader" // compiles Sass to CSS
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
};

Module parse failed: Unexpected character '@' (1:0) You may need an appropriate loader to handle this file type.

I just came across this myself. Originally I was only importing scss but then I added an iconfont css file and I started seeing this. I updated the test regex to the following and then it worked:

// webpack.config
 {
        test: /\.(s*)css$/, // match any .scss or .css file, 
        use: [
          "style-loader", 
          "css-loader", 
          "sass-loader" 
        ]
      },

I am not an expert with webpack but I believe if you add something similar to the above or maybe even just adjust the regex here it might help.

Module parse failed: Unexpected character '@' (4:0) You may need an appropriate loader to handle this file type.

thanks , working.

Thanks so much. It is work for webpack 4.35.3

I am using GITHUB-LINK as a setup for webpack4 with scss, lazyloading, devserver. Working with the latest webpack version.

Cheers
