using watchify with babelify for react transpiling

[httpNick]

Hello,

With browserify I am using the command:

browserify -t [ babelify --presets [ react ] ] app.js -o bundle.js

I installed watchify globally, and replaced browserify with watchify, but nothing happens when I run the command. My terminal just hangs. Am I missing something?

watchify doesn't write what it's doing to stdout by default. It's doing its job, quietly. If you want to see what it's doing, you can pass in the -v flag.

@substack okay thanks. I'll give it a shot with the flag.
