Serving webpack built assets from a subdirectory

In all the examples I've seen, the entrypoint html file (e.g. index.html) lives alongside all the built assets emitted by webpack.

build/
  index.html
  bundle.js
  1.bundle.js
  2.bundle.js
  etc

I'd like to have my entrypoint html separate from the built assets:

index.html
build/
  bundle.js
  1.bundle.js
  2.bundle.js
  etc

Is this possible with webpack?

Aha, figured it out. In the webpack.config, you have to set output.publicPath. That path is used to prefix all relative URLs in CSS.

In my case, I used:

output: {
    path: path.resolve('./build'),
    publicPath: './build/',
    filename: '[name].bundle.js'
},
