Hi,

Does anyone know how to set up an ember app to reload every time a project from the yarn workspace is updated?

Make sure [the `isDevelopingAddon` flag](https://ember-cli.com/api/classes/addon#method_isDevelopingAddon) is set in any addons. You also may want to install watchman if you’re on any Unix based OS. On a mac with homebrew that would. be `brew install watchman`.

Thanks! The flag works pretty well!
