I do something similar using entr [0][1]. I use it instead of `watch` because I would rather not re-run things if no relevant files have changed.

For example, I run:

  fd -e j2 -e py | entr -c python3 build.py

To rebuild a static site every time the build script[2] (py) or a Jinja2 template (j2) changes.
