2 - cd test

Anything that you do, reload the entire app and in some cases in iOS nothing happen...

HRM it's a dream that was selled to community that love the NatvieScript idea, but personally I don't know nobody that can use minimally this feature... It's a HUGE thing that in my vision need to be carefully shared with the community and I can help with something if you can help me to understanding why this was not resolved in our platform yet.

What is even more curious to me is that if you run the same project created from scratch, using ns preview and open it in the Playground app, you will be able to use all the amazing features of HRM.

Sorry for the outburst, I have been working on this for several months, but until today I have not been able to reach a viable conclusion and I can't admit that we cannot resolve this.
