I try to change some code in a VERY obvious way, no code that might be interfering. Compile, open browser, no change. Recompile, check, that the compiled output indeed contains the changed code, refresh, no change ... what??
Delete browser cache, also reopen with new tab, clear IDE cache, restart, rerun with npm i. Still no change... ??? What is this black magic?

    @iiii yeah, that's normally it. Or wrong server. I often am on production page instead of development and see nothing changing. I use both very frequent.

    Very specific but: if you're alternating between dev and prod builds of a static site without fully cleaning the outpur dir and the prod build has compressed gzip/brotli files, they will be served instead of the uncompressed assets of the latest dev build.

    Turns out there's an angular cache folder just silently lurking in the dark making my life miserable.
