npm link not work as I expect but can see node module updated

Hi I plan to test my node module from local; I navigate to the folder I need to link and did

npm link

This created a symlink locally. Then I navigate my project and did

npm link @account/api

Then I see the node module @accout/api under my project has been updated, I checked the /src, and it had my updates.

But after I run "npm run dev", I didn't see my update, it still used previous code. Any ideas about this issue? Thanks!

After updating node modules sometimes the changes are not implemented. You can try some of below process-

  1. Check for the changes after restarting your PC.

  2. If after restarting it doesn't work, try to clear npm cache using command below

npm cache clean --force

Or you can manually delete npm cache from your PC.
