It will watch the given directories (defaults to the current working directory) with `watchTree` and run the given command every time a file changes.

### Examples

As stated above the pattern is:

watch <command> [...directory] [OPTIONS]

To run the watch command in the terminal you have to write the following:

watch 'npm run test -s' directory

As the command has to be written in quotation marks Windows users may need to use double quotes rather than single quotes

watch "npm run test -s" directory

Note: Because Windows users may need to use double quotes rather than single quotes they need to escape the them in npm scripts

"scripts": {
"watch:osx": "watch 'npm run test -s' source"
"watch:windows": "watch \"npm run test -s\" source",
}
