Webpack using bootstrap - jquery is not defined

Question

import $ from 'jquery';
require("./node_modules/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css")
require("./node_modules/bootstrap/js/dropdown.js")
import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
var _ = require('lodash');

Please refer above my setting . Some reason I've got error saying "Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined() from dropdown.js

I also included the following lines at webpack.config.js

   plugins: [
    new webpack.NoErrorsPlugin({
        $: "jquery",
        jQuery: "jquery"
    })
]

But, No luck - Still having jQuery undefined error. Any idea ? Can someone help this issue please?

Many thanks

please use webpack ProviderPlugin, use global is not a good idea.

// webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
    ...
    plugins: [
        new webpack.ProvidePlugin({
           $: "jquery",
           jQuery: "jquery"
       })
    ]
};
