Ah, I see what you mean.

I am sorry I made a mistake in the post so updated step 5. Install NPM packages to install react & react-dom as a dependency not as a dev dependency, which is not included in the final bundle.

So react & react-dom should be under dependencies as shown in package.json below.

{
    "version": "1.0.0",
    "name": "asp.net",
    "private": true,
    "scripts": {
        "dev": "webpack --mode development --watch",
        "build": "webpack"
    },
    "dependencies": {
        "react": "^16.5.2",
        "react-dom": "^16.5.2"
    },
    "devDependencies": {
        "@babel/cli": "^7.1.2",
        "@babel/core": "^7.1.2",
        "@babel/plugin-proposal-class-properties": "^7.1.0",
        "@babel/preset-env": "^7.1.0",
        "@babel/preset-react": "^7.0.0",
        "babel-loader": "^8.0.4",

        "webpack-cli": "^3.1.2",
        "webpack-notifier": "^1.7.0"
    }
}
