## What it is
Jurigged is a Python tool that enables hot reloading of code while a script runs, patching changed functions and methods into the live process. It also offers a terminal-based live development environment (develoop) for iteratively re-running a single function on code changes.

## Use cases
- hot reload python code while it runs
- live edit functions during development without restarting the script
- re-run a single function on every file save
- watch for file changes and patch a running python process
- start a live REPL with hot code updates

## When to choose
- you want to iterate on Python functions without restarting long-running scripts or reloading heavy modules
- you need a lightweight, pip-installable hot reload tool for plain Python scripts
- you want a live REPL that supports live code editing

## When to avoid
- you need hot reloading for web frameworks with built-in reloaders like Flask or Django dev servers
- you require guaranteed consistent state after structural code changes, since only changed lines are re-run
- you are on Python older than 3.8
