A lot of components of dwl will also only get run on a trigger (the tiling for example).
So not every change will be immediate.
#### Note
This patches triggers `-Wpedantic` a bunch (there's no way around this, `dlsym` yields `void*` pointers to functions).
#### Notes
##### reduce compile errors
This patch triggers `-Wpedantic` a bunch (I don't think there's a way around this, `dlsym` yields `void*` pointers to functions).
This will show a lot of warnings but cause no errors.
So you may want to disable this compile option in order to get readable compiler output.
##### runtime dependencies
This does depend on you having a notification daemon like `dunst` or `mako` running as well as
having `notify-send` installed in order for the compositor to inform you of the reload.
#### How?
Most of all dwl functionality is moved into a shared object file `dwl.so`, which can be reloaded at runtime.
