WebStorm does not play well with gulp watch


When I use WebStorm with gulp watch, watchify, tsc ... not all save commands trigger the watch.

I am sure that WebStorm has it for performance reasons but this drives me crazy.

Is there a flag which I can set, which saves the file immediately?


Solution

  • Webstorm support helped me with a quick response.

    Turning 'Safe write' option ( Settings | Appearance & Behavior | System Settings) off fixed the issue.
