otherwise one might assume it uses webpack hot reloading modules as explained here: https://gist.github.com/gaearon/06bd9e2223556cb0d841#file-naive-js BTW why doesn't CRA feature this kind of reloading? It is sooo much faster and 100% reliable.
It supports hot reloading for CSS, but not for React components. See my answer in gaearon/react-hot-boilerplate#97 (comment).
Trust me as author of hot reloading tools that it’s not 100% reliable 😉 . |

If you don‘t use something like React Hot Loader, you need to call HMR APIs yourself. Create React App won’t call them for you, but if you add the calls explicitly, it should work. Este does this manually: https://github.com/este/este/blob/master/src/browser/main.js#L32-L42. |
