Hey everyone,
any ideas how could I setup Strapi 4 to use ts-node (compilation in memory) or any similar tools, instead of recompiling all the files every time I change anything?

I think that could really improve the workflow on the Back End.

It looks like Strapi is forcing the TypeScript builds every time something changes and I have no idea if any solution like that is possible without changing the core of the Strapi project.

Thanks for all the suggestions!

Any ideas guys? That would be really helpful for the community using the dev environment (no more time wasted on code compilations where it’s not needed)
