What this system is
This system is an Erlang-based file synchronization and hot-reload utility designed to automatically compile and reload changed modules. It features a built-in notification system that alerts users via desktop notifications or console logs, and allows for configuration of excluded paths and notification preferences.
Features
Converted to a proper Erlang application with a new notification system
The \sync\ module is now a proper Erlang application that automatically compiles and reloads changed modules without relying on external makefiles. A new \sync\_notify\ module handles desktop notifications (Growl, notify-send, notifu, Emacs client) and console logging, while \sync\_scanner\ manages the file-watching and compilation queue. The application structure is defined in \sync.app.src\.

Sync utility adds configuration options and desktop notifications
The Sync utility now supports desktop notifications for compilation results on Linux (via notify-send), Mac OS X (via Notification Center), and Windows (via Notifu). Users can configure which notifications to show using the \log\ and \growl\ config options, and can pause or stop the sync process using new \sync:pause()\ and \sync:stop()\ functions. Additionally, the \excluded\_paths\ option allows users to prevent recursively scanning large directories.

About this page
- The score is its most recent published measurement, taken on 23 September 2026 at a pinned commit. It is not a live figure and does not change until the project is measured again.
- Measured at commit 4e909f69d3d0db21a6d7128b20748819e415c9eb — the exact code this score is about.
- Scored under rubric-2026.09.15 — the same rubric and the same method as every other entry in this index.
- Measured by watchdog.canine.dev using codehealth-analyzer preprod-955b9cee9818.
