Fail to use babel with webpack

I want to write a simple demo by using webpack and babel, but I really cant figure out what problem is, I have webpack version 1.13.3 and after i try to install npm install --save-dev babel-core babel-preset-es2015 or npm install --save-dev babel-loader I get the following errors:

+-- [email protected]
+-- [email protected]
`-- UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY webpack@1 || ^2.1.0-beta

or 

+-- [email protected]
`-- UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY webpack@1 || ^2.1.0-beta

I have node v.6.9.1 and npm v4.0.2 what should I do?

Since the latest peer dependencies of the webpack are installed through the devdependencies as mentioned here

Therefore if you try to install the webpack without installing the webpack-dev-server it will throw an error.

Same issue is referenced here

So using the following npm command npm install --global webpack webpack-dev-server eliminates the warning about the webpack as well as installing it globally.

Locally the command works fine

npm install --save-dev webpack
npm install --save-dev webpack-dev-server
