  Description     : wrapper around node.js fs.watch / fs.watchFile /
fsevents

 The main motivations for this library is the following short comings of
Node.js `fs.watch`:
 .
  * Doesn't report filenames on OS X.
  * Doesn't report events at all when using editors like Sublime on OS X.
  * Often reports events twice.
  * Emits most changes as `rename`.
  * Has a lot of other issues.
  * Does not provide an easy way to recursively watch file trees.
 .
 and the following short comings of Node.js `fs.watchFile`:
 .
  * Almost as bad at event handling.
  * Also does not provide any recursive watching.
  * Results in high CPU utilization.
 .
 Chokidar resolves these problems.
 .
 Node.js is an event-based server-side JavaScript engine.

Dependency of webpack
