Debug "create-response-app" does not work in WebStorm

Question

I recently updated a web application project to use the "create-response-app" rather than configuring Webpack and Babel together.

Earlier debugging in WebStorm worked fine with the Chrome JetBrains extension.

Now, however, when I set a breakpoint in the JavaScript files (.jsx) in the project, it does not stop at breakpoints. but if I put a breakpoint on the script line in the index.html file, it will work, and if I turn on "break on exception", it will work in this case.

I'm really confused. Any help or suggestions would be fantastic (this is probably something simple).

here is the solution:

update webstorm to "WebStorm-EAP-171.3019.10":
