Module build failed: ReferenceError: window is not defined

Question

I am using Webpack4 to build my react app and the webpack.config.js looks as following:

const HtmlWebPackPlugin = require("html-webpack-plugin");
const MiniCssExtractPlugin = require("mini-css-extract-plugin");
const path = require('path');

module.exports = {
  entry: ['@babel/polyfill', './src/index.js'],
  output: {
    path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist'),
    filename: 'bundle.js'
  },
  module: {
    rules: [{
        test: /\.js$/,
        exclude: /node_modules/,
        use: {
          loader: "babel-loader",
          options: {
            presets: ["@babel/preset-env", "@babel/preset-react"]
          }
        }
      },
      {
        test: /\.html$/,
        use: [{
          loader: "html-loader",
          options: {
            minimize: true
          }
        }]
      },
      {
        test: /\.scss$/,
        use: [{
          loader: MiniCssExtractPlugin.loader
        }, {
          loader: "style-loader"
        }, {
          loader: "css-loader"
        }, {
          loader: "sass-loader",
          options: {
            includePaths: ["./node_modules"]
          }
        }]
      }
    ]
  },
  plugins: [
    new HtmlWebPackPlugin({
      template: "./public/index.html",
      filename: "./index.html"
    }),
    new MiniCssExtractPlugin({
      filename: "[name].css",
      chunkFilename: "[id].css"
    })
  ]
};

Try to compile the app, the compiler complains:

 @ multi (webpack)-dev-server/client?http://localhost:8080 @babel/polyfill ./src/index.js .

the content of index.scss file looks as following:

@import './font-awesome/scss/fontawesome.scss';
@import 'bootstrap/scss/bootstrap';

What do I am window missing?

I removed style-loader and resolve my issue

 rules: [
            {
                test: /\.(s*)css$/,
                use: [
                    MiniCssExtractPlugin.loader,
                     //'style-loader',
                    'css-loader',
                    'sass-loader'
                ]
            }]
