Webpack DevServer --open option












1















I am running windows 10. Default browser is Edge. I would like Webpack to open in firefox.



I have tried



devServer: {
inline: true,
open: 'mozilla',
port: 8080
},


But still open in Edge. Have also tried 'firefox'. Looking at the docs, it gives an example for chrome, which as various names depending on the OS.



Does anyone know what I need for firefox on windows 10?
