Overview

For developers faster iteration results in more room for creativity. This project addresses two causes of development slowdowns; application reboots and compilation time.
Entry is a lightweight entrypoint for applications written in C/C++ or any language that can export C style functions into dynamically loadable libraries. Entry is responsible for hot reloading your code giving immediate feedback.
