+# setupMiddlewares
+
+Provides the ability to execute a custom function and apply custom middleware(s).
+
+**webpack.config.js**
+
+```js
+module.exports = {
+  // ...
+  devServer: {
+    setupMiddlewares: (middlewares, devServer) => {
+      if (!devServer) {
+        throw new Error("webpack-dev-server is not defined");
+      }
+
+      const sendResponses = () => {
+        devServer.app.get("/setup-middleware/some/path", (_, response) => {
+          response.send("setup-middlewares option GET");
+        });
+      };
+
+      middlewares.push(sendResponses());
+
+      return middlewares;
+    },
+  },
+};
+```
+
+To run this example use the following command:
+
+```console
+npx webpack serve --open
+```
+
+## What Should Happen
+
+1. The script should open `http://localhost:8080/` in your default browser.
+2. You should see the text on the page itself change to read `Success!`.
+3. Go to `http://localhost:8080/setup-middleware/some/path`, you should see the text on the page itself change to read `setup-middlewares option GET`.
