原因分析：

关键问题点:Error: Cannot find module ‘webpack-cli/bin/config-yargs’

原因webpack-dev-server ^3 需要安装webpack-cli ^3

网上搜索，有人建议将webpack-cli版本降到3，有时会出现新的问题，不能npm install webpack-cli@3 --dev;

解决方案：

解决方法步骤：
1.卸载当前的 webpack-cli ：npm uninstall webpack-cli

2.安装 webpack-cli 3.* 版本 npm install webpack-cli@3 -D

3.如果npm install webpack-cli@3 -D不能安装，则使用yarn进行安装 yarn add webpack-cli@3 --dev

// package.json文件
“devDependencies”: {
“html-webpack-plugin”: “^5.2.0”,
“webpack”: “^5.23.0”,
“webpack-cli”: “3”,
“webpack-dev-server”: “^3.11.2”
}
