How to see Redash code changes right away instead of building entire modules each time?

Question

I am working on customizing a visualization in redash. Whenever I do a change I don't see the change immediately. Instead I'll have to execute npm run build and build the modules again. That building step is consuming a lot of time. Is there any workaround for this issue so that I can see the changes right away, and avoid wasting time? Thanks in advance.

You can use npm run watch instead, which will rebuild incrementally when you change. You can also use npm run start to have it autoreload, but then you need to load the UI via localhost:8080.
