Blank screen after updating code (Angular-NativeScript)

I am learning NativeScript and I am able to install one of the sample apps without any problems. the emulators work fine after the app is installed. However, after I make any minor changes to the code and save it, the emulator just shows a white screen. I have to restart the emulator to see the changes I made to the code.

This sounds like a problem with Hot Module Replacement. When I run my code using tns run --no-hmr it restarts the app in the emulator and it works fine, but without HMR developing becomes a major pain.

I have checked several questions here on stack overflow (1, 2, 3), but I do not see anyone having the same issue I am having.

In the meantime is not possible to use HMR; as per the new maintainer of NativeScript, Nathan Walker from nStudio:

Just use the --no-hmr for the time being.

Feel free to help them! NativeScript accepts PRs, and they are welcome now more than ever!

However, last time I talked with Nathan, I understood that they are working in a WebSockets-based solution to push code to your phone. After all, most of the code changes are difference in Javascript, not in native dependencies.
