Module not found (Typescript and baseUrl option)

Question

I am trying to use custom paths in my typescript project, the problem is that webpack doesn't recognize my modules giving me the "webpackMissingModule" error.

I have tried different solutions but nothing works for me. Suggestions? Ideas?

Some packages

"react": "^16.8.4",
"react-dom": "^16.8.4",
"typescript": "3.3.1",

tsconfig.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es5",
    "lib": ["dom", "dom.iterable", "esnext"],
    "allowJs": true,
    "skipLibCheck": true,
    "esModuleInterop": true,
    "allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true,
    "strict": true,
    "forceConsistentCasingInFileNames": true,
    "module": "esnext",
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "resolveJsonModule": true,
    "isolatedModules": true,
    "noEmit": true,
    "jsx": "preserve"
  },
  "include": ["./src"],
  "exclude": ["node_modules", "build"],
  "extends": "./paths.json"
}

paths.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": "./src",
    "paths": {
      "@src/*": ["*"],
      "@components/*": ["components/*"]
    }
  }
}

.env

NODE_PATH=./

Component

import React from "react";
import Hello from "@components/Hello";

const Home = () => (
  <div>
    <h1>Home</h1>
    <Hello />
  </div>
);

export default Home;

Well, I found something that worked for me. It's called tsconfig-paths-webpack-plugin. All you need to do is to import it in your webpack config, connect with the tsconfig.json, and that's all.

The plugin is added in the resolve.plugins array of the exported config, not plugins in the root.
