hi, i am working on a web app chat
my web app runs on its own port, and i start it like this:
genkit start -- go run main.gothe web app works fine, and i really like the UI flow at http://localhost:4000/
it lets me make quicker iterative changes in the flows and prompts.
my problem is that itβs really hit or miss to get the latest version of the app running in genkit's webui. when it does, genkit webui on the top of the pages shows the name and the process ID found in
/tmp/go-build3621574931/b001/exe/main or sometimes in ~/.cache/go-build/...sometimes it just complaints how it can't find it (attached screenshot)
occasionally, it panics with an error like this:
2025/10/10 14:11:43 http: panic serving 127.0.0.1:40944: genkit.Init: reflection server startup failed: failed to create listener: listen tcp 127.0.0.1:3100: bind: address already in usei try to find processes with
go-build in its name and make sure there's none before i run genkit. it's kind of annoying to do all that dance in order to do something so much more interesting how do you approach this? any hints?
