// Feature: HMR of assets — reload config without restarting

// Syntax: global hook `pub fn __on_asset_reload(path: str, ext: str)`

// When to use: games (shaders, sprites), apps with hot config,

// pipelines where data changes more often than the code.

//

// The watcher recognizes: .json .toml .yaml .yml .csv

//                         .wgsl .glsl .frag .vert .hlsl

// For each such file under `--watch <dir>` (recursive) or the

// implicit directories of the entry/modules, the hook is called.
