- add `--poll` / `-p` option for polling - add `--ignored` / `-i` option for ignoring specified paths - add some default options for watcher based on config used in `tailwindcss`

are those -p and -i shortcuts matching the Tailwind CLI? Personally, I would not introduce those as we might add some other options in the future and they might be better suited for having those shortcuts (this feels especial;y true about -p)

is there any specific reason to prefer this in certain situations?

| usePolling: shouldPoll, | ||
| interval: shouldPoll ? pollInterval : undefined, | ||

this one has been added, right? could you elaborate on why you think it's needed? what kind of issues this can help us avoid?

previously we were using true here at all times - any particular reason why this has been changed?

What
--poll/-poption for polling--ignored/-ioption for ignoring specified pathstailwindcssWhy
--polloptionIt was easy to add and maybe someone will need that
--ignoredoptionThis might be useful for big projects / monorepos. Someone might want to ignore
node_modulesdirectory. My case was slightly different. Due to unexpected behavior ofchokidarlib on Windows, I had to ignore some additional paths. Nevertheless, the case is still valid :)Additional options

tailwindis widely used, I assumed those settings might serve as nice defaults.Thank you for your time.
