Describe the bug

This was originally going to be a bug report titled "Editing src/App.js and saving to reload does not refresh the browser in WSL2", when I discovered during the writing of this report that inotify is not fully supported in the 9P filesystem protocol on WSL2

Which terms did you search for in User Guide?

Followed https://create-react-app.dev/docs/troubleshooting/#npm-start-doesnt-detect-changes:

Whilst checking watchers, as I am using WSL2 I searched online and came across https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63402588/how-can-nodemon-be-made-to-work-with-wsl-2. This solved the problem of saving files not refreshing the browser

Steps to reproduce

(Write your steps here:)

  1. npx create-react-app my-app
  2. cd my-app
  3. npm start
  4. Make changes to src/App.js
  5. Follow troubleshooting guidance at https://create-react-app.dev/docs/troubleshooting/#npm-start-doesnt-detect-changes as changes are not detected

Expected behavior

The troubleshooting guidance refers to known issues with WSL2: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63402588/how-can-nodemon-be-made-to-work-with-wsl-2

Actual behavior

The troubleshooting guidance does not refer to the known issues with WSL2
