Reload Loop

[ChrisKader]

Started a new project with this template when I run npm run dev, the application reloads the page over and over until I kill the process.

If it helps, my original project did not have an issue until I deleted the node-modules folder and did an npm install. I assume a dependency update broke it but I went through some of the recent updates you made to the library and reverted to previous versions without any luck.

After a bit of trial and error the reload looping seems to be attributed to the @nuxt/typescript-build module.

@ChrisKader, thanks for reporting and your research.
So far the only solution is to use yarn

Will yarn work with your package without issue? I have been working on my first Electron app and I have gotten used to using this Electron-Nuxt (It is an amazing package!). Currently I do not have any problem with the reload loop (using the dependencies below) but I also dont mind swapping.
