I found this older issue https://github.com/bhauman/lein-figwheel/pull/631/commits/94a551b2afe6c4fed60ce4e8f88fbee8f1578b61

it is relevant to an issue I came across - lein figwheel doesn’t seem to run prep-tasks

any particular reason ?

I’m slightly surprised even, I didn’t realize/think it was at the plugin’s responsibility level in lein to choose to run prep-tasks or not - although, now that I look at built-in plugins, it does seem to be the case

I have :prep-tasks in a profile, they are always run if I do lein with-profile +the-profile X where X is tasks such as test, repl, install, etc

but when the task is figwheel, I see the :prep-tasks do not happen
