Hi, The new watchman-based autoreloader in Django 2.2 is a nice improvement. However, the main issue in my opinion is that there are no Debian/Ubuntu official packaging of watchman to my knowledge. I've been able to compile it without difficulty, but I'm especially concerned about newcomers and non-experienced programmers which will be faced to a startup warning message and a rather heavy system load when they start developing with Django. Telling them they have to compile from sources to get rid of that is not very friendly at least.
Tom (Forbes), as the author of this refactoring, could you tell us if it would be much work to create a pyinotify reloader to fallback when watchman is not installed?
