A downloadable tool

A dead simple file watcher that waits for C# file changes, developed in a couple of days for The Tool Jam 4.

The idea to make this came to mind when I've been developing games in Godot 4 using .NET, I wanted to be able to just write code and not have to manually run the build inside Godot everytime anything needs to be exposed in the editor.

To use this simply put the executable in your solution or project root and start the application, it'll start a Console / Terminal and just sit there waiting for changes in any C# file and run the .NET build CLI command.
You obviously need .NET installed to be able to use it. (Linux is untested)

I will update this project post-jam to make it more versatile and customizable, so that it's not only for C# files.
