In your package.json

You may have some build script in your package.json involving mirroring folders (let's say, static assets), that's a good use-case for copy-and-watch:

{
  "devDependencies": {
    "copy-and-watch": "latest"
  },
  "scripts": {
    "build": "copy-and-watch src/**/*.{html,json} src/**/fonts/* dist",
    "watch": "copy-and-watch --watch src/**/*.{html,json} src/**/{fonts,images}/* dist"
  }
}
