dx serve not watching sub-modules

[drdozer]

Problem

I have a dioxus project with various modules in src, and then a sub-module for charting. Changes to source in the top-level files triggers dx serve to rebuild and launch the app. Changes to source in the nested folder does not.

Expected behavior

Changes to code in nested modules should trigger a rebuild and relaunch. It does not. Pressing r does a manual rebuild and relaunch, pulling in any changes in the nested module.

Environment:

• Dioxus version: 0.7.3 (22b06ba)
• Rust version: 1.96.0-nightly (80381278a 2026-03-01)
• OS info: Devuan excalibur
• App platform: linux

Questionnaire

I'm interested in fixing this myself but don't know where to start.
