I'm following the basic tutorial of webpack from this link : https://webpack.js.org/guides/getting-started/
when I run npx webpack
it fails with the following error:
ERROR in main.js from Terser
TypeError: Cannot read property 'minify' of undefined

It's a bug and you can fix it by installing terser v3.14
Simply run:
npm i -D [email protected]
