Is there a entr alternative for Windows?

I'm force to code on windows sometimes, with powershell or cmd, and I wonder if there's an Entr alternative for windows, and yes, I see the workaround for WSL but I'm trying to do it native.

I don't know of a utility similar to entr(1) for Windows, but I'll keep this open for a little while in case someone else knows.

There's https://github.com/gorakhargosh/watchdog, which runs on many platforms (windows included). Comes with a (Python) CLI tool.

Yes, although not as easy and cool as entr but works, thank you, here's how I ran that one:

watchmedo shell-command --patterns="*.py" --recursive --command="pytest"

Cool. Thanks for the lead @franciscod
