From version 0.7 the Appwrite containers requires a reload for any changes to get applied. This is due to the fact that most of the codebase is loaded into memory for performance boosting.

We need help setting up a hot reload solution to our code when making changes during development.

From my short research this looks like a nice idea for a Docker based solution:

Any similar Docker based solution that gets the job done and is language agnostic can be considered for this issue.
