Hello,

I'm trying to integrate a react app created by this service into an external application by including the JS and CSS files created by running build from the React app. In other words, the project created by this service would act as a file server to serve the bundled JS and CSS files.

For this reason, I have a new NPM script in my package.json (say, build-rename) to rename (and remove the hash) from the resulting files created by the build command from create-react-app

Right now, whenever I change something in my React application, I have to run the NPM script manually to update the files being served by the server.

I was wondering if there's a way to enable hot reloading so that I will have the same convenience as running the app normally
