+# API: stopCallback(callback)
+
+While it's recommended to run `webpack-dev-server` via the CLI, you may also choose to start a server via the API.
+
+This example demonstrates using `stopCallback(callback)` method. It instructs `webpack-dev-server` instance to stop the server and then run the callback function.
+
+```js
+const Webpack = require("webpack");
+const WebpackDevServer = require("webpack-dev-server");
+const webpackConfig = require("./webpack.config");
+
+const compiler = Webpack(webpackConfig);
+const devServerOptions = { ...webpackConfig.devServer };
+const server = new WebpackDevServer(devServerOptions, compiler);
+
+server.startCallback(() => {
+  console.log("Successfully started server on http://localhost:8080");
+});
+
+const stopServer = () =>
+  server.stopCallback(() => {
+    console.log("Server stopped.");
+  });
+
+setTimeout(stopServer, 5000);
+```
+
+Use the following command to run this example:
+
+```console
+node server.js
+```
+
+## What Should Happen
+
+1. The script should start the server and open `http://localhost:8080/` in your default browser.
+2. You should see the text on the page itself change to read `Success! Reload the page after 5 seconds.`.
+3. After 5 seconds, the script will stop the server. Confirm by reloading the browser page after 5 seconds.
+4. You should see `Server stopped.` in your terminal output.
