webpack does not work for me when trying to add css using the css-loader.

I just use the command webpack
and it fails every time. This is the most frustrating tool ever. Nothing works except for if I put !!
in front of the require statement i.e. require(!!'./style.css')
I have read every bug report about this I can find on npm, stackoverflow, etc., etc. but nothing seems to point to my problem. I literally followed the instructions verbatim from the modules section of webpack and it still isn't working. PLEASE HELP!
edit: forgot the config file
const webpack = require('webpack')
const path = require('path')
const config = {
entry: './src/app.js',
output: {
filename: 'bundle.js',
path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist')
},
mode: 'development',
module: {
rules: [
{
test: /\.(s*)css$/,
use: [
'sass-loader',
'css-loader',
'style-loader'
]
},
{
test: /\.js$/,
exclude: /(node_modules)/,
use: [
'babel-loader'
]
},
{
test: /\.(png|svg|jpg)$/,
use: [
'file-loader'
]
}
]
}
};
module.exports = config;
Answer
Turns out order is important
...
use: [
"style-loader",
"css-loader",
"sass-loader"
]
...
