Webpack - package: @babel/polyfill has been deprecated - How to use an alternative?

I came back to my Webpack 4 configuration and all the packages after 4 months. It always surprises me how fast a package get's updated or deprecated.

I have this problem, that I used to include the @babel/polyfill directly to the Webpack's entry => src together with my other JS and SASS source.

This is my current .babelrc file:

{
    "presets": [
        [
            "@babel/preset-env",
            {
                "useBuiltIns": "entry",
                "corejs": "core-js@2",
                "debug": false
            }
        ]
    ]
}

And my Webpack's entry setting:

entry: {
    src: [paths.entry.polyfill(), paths.entry.js(), paths.entry.sass()]
},

And the config where i setup all the exports:

entry: {
    sass: () => path.resolve(module.exports.sass(), './style.scss'),
    js: () => path.resolve(module.exports.js(), './index.js'),
    polyfill: () => '@babel/polyfill'
},

My package.json with the Babel files:

"@babel/core": "^7.4.4",
"@babel/polyfill": "^7.4.4",
"@babel/preset-env": "^7.4.4",
"autoprefixer": "^9.4.4",
"babel-eslint": "10.0.1",
"babel-loader": "^8.0.5",
"babel-polyfill": "^6.26.0",
"babel-preset-env": "^1.7.0",

Is there any replacement that i can use for the @babel/polyfill as of today?

I would like to keep a polyfill but replace it with the deprecated package.

Thanks!

EDIT:

JS file causing an error for some reason Arrow functions are not working in production mode only:

(() => {
    // Do not remove this console log. It serves as a reminder to build in production mode.
    // Building in production mode removes all console, alert and debug statements.
    // NM.

core-js is currently replacing bable-polyfill. You do not have to set it anywhere except for the .babelrc file I have a question, why do you duplicate libraries you have @babel/polyfill and babel-pollyfill the same applies to @babel/preset-env and babel-preset-en. You have declared in .babelrc corejs but I do not see that package.json has been installed?

My example may not be perfect but I try to strive for it :)

.babelrc

{
 "presets": [
   [
    "@babel/preset-env",
    {
     "useBuiltIns": "usage",
     "corejs": 3
    }
   ]
  ]
}

package.json

"devDependencies": {
  "@babel/core": "^7.5.5",
  "@babel/preset-env": "^7.5.5",
  "babel-loader": "^8.0.6",
  "core-js": "^3.1.4" // this is now your polyfill
  ...
}

webpack.config.js

entry: {
  app: './index.js',
},

index.js

import './style.scss';
import module from './module.js';
...

UPDATE

add to package.json, you can prepare your own list of supported browsers

"browserslist": [
  "last 2 version",
  ">1%",
  "not dead"
],

add to .babelrc

{
  "debug": true,
  "useBuiltIns": "usage",
  "corejs": 3
}

After all these additional changes in the console will appear what browsers are supported and what pollyfill have been added. And of course the most important thing is to test it in IE11. I always test on 6-7 desktop and 3-4 mobile browsers.

UPD

In the case with webpack 5:

Turn off ES2015 syntax in runtime code, if necessary

By default, webpack's runtime code uses ES2015 syntax to build smaller bundles. If your build targets environments that don't support this syntax (like IE11), you'll need to set target: ['web', 'es5'] to revert to ES5 syntax ('web' if target environment is browser).

The source.
