Hey @sansyrox I am interested in taking this up :) Will look into this issue soon

[sansyrox]

Thanks @guilefoylegaurav . Let me know if you require any suport/information from my end 😄

[guilefoylegaurav]

@sansyrox I am sorry, could not update you on this - stuck with mid-terms for 4 days. Shall get back to this soon.

Hi @guilefoylegaurav ,
No worries. Take your time 😄

Also, all the best with your mid-terms! ✨

@sansyrox with reference to the problem of hot reload mode not reflecting instant changes in (some, including mine) windows/linux machines, did you look into this?

Hi @guilefoylegaurav , thanks for your PR.

I don't have an access to a windows machine till the 26th so can't really tell you about the windows issue.

Dev server reflects the right changes on my osx machine but is not killed properly on KeyboardInterrupt. I will check my linux PC to give you updates about the debian state.

If the same problem persists, feel free to let me know, I shall investigate and explore further.

@guilefoylegaurav , I didn't get a chance to have a look at it yet. Would you like have a look at it?

[guilefoylegaurav]

Sure

It works now
