App loading from cache, not updating changes

Question

Every time i make changes to my code, i have to do a npm cache clean to reflect the changes i made. Is there any permanent solution for this?

I already tried the solutions given in React native run-android do not updating modified code , but still it is temporary.

I also have enabled hot reloading and live reloading as well. But even if i had not done it, it should update changes when reloaded manually.

My emulator is Nexus 5X, API version 28, memory 2048 MB.
react-native-cli version: 2.0.1
react-native version: 0.59.3.
I'm using ubuntu 18.04 and the RAM capacity is 8gb.

read this developer documentation link : https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/debugging — Tanveerbyn, Apr 09 '19 at 13:02
I was using VS code as my text editor. Then i switched to atom. Maybe the memory is overused. I'm not sure. But it worked fine for me on atom. — Muaz, Apr 11 '19 at 05:34

In my case when I disable debugging then it updates. So this is my solution.

in Chrome dev tools > Network > Disable cache Hope that shell work for you

This worked when other options to hard refresh did not. Unchecking keeps the new files too. – Soenhay Jan 14 '22 at 02:00

which header? Can you explain it a bit, because i am new to react-native – Muaz Apr 09 '19 at 13:31
in api headers part are available. – RAVI PRAKASH Apr 10 '19 at 07:12
@RAVIPRAKASH its question on react-native, and your answer is far from topic. API is emulator soft version, app caches without any request made, where it could be added as well as no html though – Nerius Jok Apr 10 '19 at 09:13
