And what about upgrading? Most of these plugins are very much outdated.

npm audit

Shows over 30 vulnerabilities, a lot of them are of high severity.
So far I've only managed to update node-sass. If I do

npm update

some modules get updated (like webpack) but then whole thing breaks on build. I tried at least upgrade bootstrap to 4.1.1 (why use over 2 years old alfa release, if there's proper stable one!?), but even this couldn't  be done. Is there a way to make it more up to date/faster?
