maybe we should move all webpack configs to separate directory? Leaving just webpack.config.js in root directory which will load correct config depending on environment?

It would be awesome if we would have single entry point for config. Something like that.

The only problem that I see with this PR is that it removes Also there was some stuff which could be improved in webpack configuration management. |

Hey folks!
I really enjoyed this starter project and it helped me a lot when i was looking to start a project.
However I realized that it was possible to improve it in some points, among them:
Using webpack-dev-server:
With webpack-dev-server it is possible to have a greater integration with webpack,
Besides being a server with a very simple configuration to serve the webpack bundles.
Using Gulp only to generate new components:
On Gulp I think it would only be necessary to generate new components,
because the responsibles for generating the bundles would be webpack and the server for webpack-dev-server.
Also I have updated some dev dependencies, like the loaders and the webpack itself.
I believe that these changes will bring improvements and more users to this
starter project and will certainly continue to help many devs who are starting a project!
Kindly look at this PR, and Come to me if you need anything to be adjusted.
Thanks!
