How to see what files are changing?

Viewed 16

I'm using Expo Go for a React Native project, which isn't really relevant except for the fact that the app preview refreshes every time a file in the project is changed.

Lately, when previewing the app, it would refresh randomly and incessantly (sometimes 10 times in a second, sometimes go a minute without any refresh, seemingly completely random). Presumably files are changing in the background, but no IDEs are open (i'm just running the command from the terminal) so I have no idea what could be modifying these files.

In addition, this problem just started recently but I've been working on this project which has been in the same directory for months. So I don't think it's something with the file system.

Is there any way for me to debug this issue? Like, for example, a way to see which files are being changed live?
