Due to hardware limitations of the Apple Silicon chipsets on macOS, the `ext-inotif` extension is not supported. Consequently, we offer two different build variants to handle this
30+
situation:
31+
32+
1. **Non-inotify Variant:** This is a standard variant that doesn't rely on the `inotify` extension. It involves the following step:
33+
- When a new token is generated, the current process should be manually stopped.
34+
- After stopping the process, rerun the upload command to recognize and use the new token in the build process.
35+
36+
37+
2. **Inotify Variant:** This variant provides an automated process, leveraging the 'inotify' feature available on Linux. It works as follows:
38+
- The build process automatically detects when a new token is generated - without the need for human intervention.
39+
- Therefore, there's no need to manually stop and rerun the process - saving time and reducing possible errors.
40+
41+
Please note that the Inotify variant offers a more efficient and seamless experience but it is not compatible with macOS environment that use Apple Silicon chipsets. On the other
42+
hand, this variant is highly recommended for Linux users who have the `inotify` extension installed and enabled.
