In this lesson we will look at how we can setup our npm scripts to execute when the file system has changed. Some common examples of this are automatically linting your code, running unit tests, or using a pre-processor for your CSS.

If you are on windows, use double quotes:

"scripts": {
  "watch": "onchange \"**/*.js\" -- npm run build:js"
}
