Hey,
It sounds like you're changing filea in your build folder. You should never touch anything in your build folder. Instead please edit the src folder JSON files.
I would also suggest running: '$ grunt watch' instead of: '$ grunt build' everytime you make a change. As '$ grunt watch' will watch of changes to your src files and run an optimised version of '$ grunt build' - so you don't have to come back to your terminal each time you make a change.
let me know if you're still experiencing problems.
thanks,
Daryl
