Using and developing own modules in Julia 1.6

I am having some difficulty using my own modules in my project. My approach is the following:

I start by creating a folder called MyProject and a folder src within the MyProject folder. Within MyProject/src, I generate an empty project by executing generate MyModule. So far, so good.

The content of MyProject/src/MyModule/src/MyModule.jl is

module MyModule
export greet, myfunc

greet() = print("Hello World!")

function myfunc()
    print("hi from MyModule")
    return nothing
end

end # module

Now, this is my module. I want to use this in MyProject, so I go back to MyProject and activate the environment: activate .

To my understanding, in order to use MyModule in MyProject, I have to include it using dev: dev src/MyModule. When I write st, I can see that MyProject now contains MyModule - so far, so good.

I now create a file playground.jl in the MyProject-folder containing the code below, which executes flawlessly:

using MyModule

MyModule.greet()
MyModule.myfunc()

Q1. Is this approach correct and professional, or am I missing something in my workflow?

Q2. When I make changes in MyModule.jl, I go to MyProject and run ]instantiate which compiles the changes, but tells me to Restart julia to access the new version. Is this really necessary, or is there a way to get the changes of MyModule.jl without having to restart? It seems a bit excessive and tedious that I have to restart Julia to test my changes.
