As stated in [Compile time: we can't find any impls for this multi dispatch fn? - #23 by tim.holy](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/compile-time-we-cant-find-any-impls-for-this-multi-dispatch-fn/94736/23), I think you’re failing to understand that you don’t have to kill it just because `src/server.jl` changed. (IIUC, Scala can’t recompile code within the same session when the code changes. But Julia most definitely can.) If you’re using Revise, you can update the running session, and all you need to do is regenerate the web pages.
