• https://github.com/CodesVault/howdy-wp
• WordPress plugin boilerplate (Feat. Webpack, BrowswerSync, & HMR) -- has webpack with HMR (via _ webpack-hot-middleware_ and browsersync-webpack-plugin) but requires entering the proxy URL and such, ugh
• https://github.com/deliciousbrains/wp-react-boilerplate -- the linked article says they didn't get HMR working with Webpack 3
• https://github.com/youknowriad/wp-js-plugin-starter
• https://framework.themosis.com/docs/2.0/plugin -- has webpack with HMR but this is like its own ecosystem way of doing things
• https://github.com/GaryJones/plugin-boilerplate
• https://roots.io/a-workflow-for-modern-wordpress-plugin-development/

• https://github.com/brightnucleus/boilerplate
• https://github.com/inpsyde/boilerplate
• https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg
• https://github.com/gopangolin/wp-reactivate -- no HMR
• https://github.com/jaredpalmer/presspack -- whole environment, including HMR
• https://github.com/swashata/wp-webpack-script -- looks like it's well-built but doesn't use anything from WP (wp-element script, wp-components style) so does it double-load React, React-DOM, and styles? Lots of nice features, though, including HMR

Guess we'd await a post at https://markjaquith.com/ - until then, the twitter thread is very insightful.
