Keep in mind, that it hot-swaps code, but doesn't rebuild the objects. This may be confusing, because when something on the client side changes, you typically reload the page - thereby re-initializing all instances.
On the server side you don't do that when hot-swapping. So (at least for me) hot-swapping of server side code works. But keep in mind, that this is not the same as a server restart. e.g. if you change a constructor, it won't affect already constructed instances.
