**Expected behavior**
The npm dev command transpiles the typescript code and executes the developer server normally, when a change in a file is made, the server reloads automatically, compiles/transpiles too, and listen in the default port.
**Additional context**
- A workaround exist: Bottender expects `npx bottender dev` to be executed at least one time to generate `dist` folder but you lost all "hot reload" capabilities doing this, the dev server makes useless.
- As noted in #847, in this moment Bottender doesn't allow to change the default entrypoint and route paths when startup.
- The actual configuration in Bottender using in a typescript project doesn't permit to avoid the "dual" workflow of use a `dist` transpiled folder configured as a import in `index.js` and a "core" typescript project using `ts-node`.
