I assume one can use Grunt instead of watchify. E.g. grunt-watch + grunt-browserify.

thlorenz commented 10 years ago

You can use whatever you want, I mentioned that in the video actually. As long as your bundle gets updated every time a file changes you are good.

Actually grunt-contrib-watch is based on gaze so you could also use that directly to build your own little script that re-bundles.

Tons of options here.

If you don't mind me plugging something I wrote: npm-watch is an option for those who prefer to use the "scripts" field from package.json for their build actions.

Thanks for the post, I've got this working when I edit the files from the workspace folder it updates the file correctly.

My only frustration is that when I do a console.log when I click on the link to the right of the log text it opens the correct file, but opens it outside of my workspace so the saving does not work unless I map that file again.

Is that the expected behaviour? One massive benefit from this technique would be to open all the files used in a stack trace and be able to edit them straight in the browser without having to setup the mappings for each file I open.
