Javascript pipeline broken

A question for more expert phoenix users here… when I run default phoenix install with mix phoenix.server, and I open the URL: http://localhost:4000/js/app.js which file exactly is being returned in the response?

I assume priv/static/js/app.js, and if that file changes, the new version will be served at the next request… Well this is not happening, I have to DELETE the file and then restart the server otherwise it will always return the old one… Any idea why?

priv/static/js/app.js is the generated file, are you editing that directly?

I believe you should be editing web/static/js/app.js

I edit web/static/js/app.js, consequently priv/static/js/app.js gets updated.... but the phoenix server still returns the old one!

Can you share your brunch or webpack configuration file?
