Bug Report

IMPORTANT: Please follow this template strictly when reporting bugs. Providing detailed and accurate information helps the development team to understand and address the issue effectively.

App Version: 2.0.0

Platform: Windows

Installation Method: Direct Download

Bug Description: It seems sleek is unable to watch files in WSL, this is sort of a bug report/feature request combo and I imagine this would be a slightly bigger thing to implement

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Create a todo.txt file in a wsl distro
  2. Open the todo.txt file in sleek (\\wsl.localhost\Ubuntu\home\user\todo.txt)
  3. Create a todo
  4. The list of todos won't update
  5. refresh sleek with Ctrl+R and the todos will appear

Expected Behavior: TODO's should appear directly after creation

Actual Behavior: TODO's require a hard refresh of sleek to show up after creation

Additional Information:

Screenshots:

System Information:

Reproducibility:

Impact:

Workaround: Put the todo.txt file outside of WSL

Actually needed to look up what WSL is :D

I'm not sure if this can be solved in sleek, or if this is an issue with Chokidar, the module which handles the watching. I'll add this to the backlog.
