React Hot Loader - Tweak React components in real time

Developer Experience - There are a number of tools that improves the development experience with React. React Developer Tools is a browser extension that allows you to inspect your component, view and manipulate its props and state. Hot reloading with webpack allows you to view changes to your code in your browser, without you having to refresh the browser. Front end development involves a lot of tweaking code, saving and then refreshing the browser. Hot reloading helps you by eliminating the last step. When there are library updates, Facebook provides codemod scripts to help you migrate your code to the new APIs. This makes the upgrading process relatively pain-free. Kudos to the Facebook team for their dedication in making the development experience with React great.

I am considering how to make my compiler (which outputs JavaScript), output patch changes, which somehow update the server or browser with the code changes, so you don't have to shutdown/restart the server or refresh the page. I was going to take a look at the react-hot-loader source code, but it's a little too abstract, it will take a while / few days at least to start to grok.

I am starting to look through the source of react-hot-loader, but it is no insignificant beast. Can someone explain at a high level how this is implemented, just in enough detail so one could reason about how to reimplement this functionality in another programming language?

I'm using react-hot-loader and I'm very confused about its example code:

Sorry, I've gone too far. I'm not here to persuade you to use Standard JS. My intention is to provide information and guidance on configuring JavaScript Standard Style for your team, should you agree with me or have other reasons to choose it.

I picked up standard[1] a while back for this reason, I don't want to have to think about it. It works fine, I have no complaints (took me a while to get used to not using semi-colons but now I prefer it) Same reason I use `cargo fmt` as well.

For example, if you use https://standardjs.com/ - it will error on your second code snippet and if you ask it for an autofix - it will transfer the minus sign to the first line.
