Can't `npm start` after addition of css modules to project

[wajd]

when attempting npm start after adding app.css in the Demo:css modules section of tutorial, this is returned: TypeError: Cannot read property 'filter' of undefined at findLoader (/Users/wjt/ReactProjects/welp/webpack.config.js:41:25) at Object.

current suggested solution in comments is deleting node_modules directory, replacing webpack config file w/ tutorial repo version and reinstalling dependencies, theorising that a change in technologies is the reason for the failure, but I would rather find out how to do this using the updated technologies.

I'm getting the same error because : config.module.loaders is always returning undefined from webpack.config.js

Any solution?
