Description

When I edit typescript files, the app restarts correctly - the app relaunches and the login state gets preserved.

But when I edit CSS or HTML the opposite behavior occurs - the app resets but the old firebase instance doesn't get removed (I get a JS: firebase.init error: You already ran init error) and the auth state is not preserved (I have to manually re-login every time).

Is there some sort of ""soft reset" bug causing these failed relaunches?

Contributor guide
