I noticed the same problem in my own project.

From my testing, versions 3.0.0-beta.6 and higher are broken (including the latest release, 3.0.4): if I modify a JSON file, code that depends on it will not reload.
Version 3.0.0-beta.5 and lower do work: if I modify a JSON file, code that depends on it will reload as expected.

Hopefully this helps the Vite devs.

In vite@^3.0.0 you can specify a importing-asset parameter.

import json from './tst.json?init'; // makes it hot reloadable

or

import json from './tst.json?inline'; // makes it hot reloadable

Reproduction: on StackBlitz ⚡️

Not sure which is better but both work.

Best documentation I could find was https://vitejs.dev/guide/assets.html#importing-asset-as-url but that wasn't clear nor did it list inline or init.
