Question: Advise for hot reloading in development

[jackHedaya]

Hi!

I'm using webext-redux in development and am wondering how you guys hot reload the extension. Before, I was simply loading the extension frontend in chrome as a normal webpage and then building to an extension. Obviously, with the background script being extension exclusive, this is no longer an option.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

If you are using manifest v2, I recommend https://github.com/rubenspgcavalcante/webpack-extension-reloader.

Keep in mind that if you are already on manifest v3 like us, this library won't work for you as the issue hasn't been resolved rubenspgcavalcante/webpack-extension-reloader#125
