webpack-serve-waitpage

A middleware plugin for webpack-serve that displays a progress page during webpack compilation, replacing the default blank page with a customizable wait screen. Current stable version is 3.0.0 (supports webpack 5 and Node 18). This package is specific to the legacy webpack-serve (v1/v2), not webpack-dev-server. Alternatives include webpack-dev-server's built-in progress overlay or separate plugins like webpack-dashboard.
