Following issues building Desktop app with parcel watcher (See #5920), this PR brings back chokidar.
It also reduces unnecessary redefinitions of the watcher.
Now editors have to register themselves in order to get the information about when a resource has been changed.
Note: It is done using
componentDidMount
andcomponentWillUnmount
but it can replaced with a singleReact.useEffect
with a tidying function when the component is transformed into a functional component.
