A bit of a show stopper since making one file change reboots the app 3 or more times.

v2.4.2 does not have this issue.

@rosen-vladimirov @vchimev how can i help with this? i would ❤️ to contribute.

[rosen-vladimirov]

@roblav96 thank you very much. I think your PR was on the right direction. Can you try modifying the pattern, for example ignored: **/*.DS_Store and see if it will work on your side?

[roblav96]

@rosen-vladimirov I can confirm that ignored: '**/*.DS_Store' does indeed resolve the issue. I'll fix this in the PR. 😄

Is this part of latest nativescript-dev-webpack ?

with version 0.14.1 when I use --bundle webpack is watching for .DS_store file.
