Describe the bug

Using the create-react-app-typescript-pwa template to generate a progressive web app returns the following error when `serviceWorker.register() is called:

index.js:1 Error during service worker registration: DOMException: Failed to register a ServiceWorker for scope ('http://localhost:3000/') with script ('http://localhost:3000/serviceWorker.js'): The script has an unsupported MIME type ('text/html'). 

• I'm only able to see the error message after I remove the following condition in the checkValidServiceWorker() function in ./src/serviceWorkerRegistration.ts:

if ( response.status === 404 || (contentType != null && contentType.indexOf('javascript') === -1) ) {
