@frandiox is there any news on this? The dev experience right now is unbearable due to full-page reloads often taking more than ten seconds in my project.

We are currently finishing some other priorities at the moment but HMR will come after that.
Out of curiosity, how long does it take a rebuild in your project? (the number shown in the terminal after saving a file).

Thanks for your reply @frandiox, I can't wait until HMR is supported. The fastest rebuilds for a Tailwind class change take 5-6 seconds, but often such a change can take around 10-12 seconds. Not sure why it varies. Even though when down to 5 seconds, styling the site makes me lose an enormous amount of time considering I then make a save every 5-10 seconds. And that is not to speak of loss of momentum and concentration. It's just not sustainable in the long run when there are libraries out there giving a much speedier developer experience. Hence I'm surprised Hydrogen is 4-5 months behind Remix when it's such a DX killer.
