Description
Hi @kentcdodds !
I use this plugin with Expo/React Native and it works great! One problem is that code regeneration happens only on restarting Metro packager with cleaning the cache, and never on file change. Do you have any idea why it works like this? Maybe you can point me on some article and I can create pr then. I am new with Babel plugins and would appreciate any help. Thanks!
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in an Expo/React Native project, changing a source file while the Metro packager is running. Inspect the plugin's code-generation behavior and its interaction with the Metro packager. Done means generated code updates after file changes without restarting Metro or clearing its cache.
