No, it always loads and runs the frozen code, but at the start of
the module code it branches between the frozen bytecode and the code
read from an external file.
Pseudo-code in every module you wish to be able to host externally:
#
# MyModule
#
if operating_in_dev_mode and '<frozen>' in __file__:
exec(open('dev-area/MyModule.py', 'r).read(), globals(), globals())
else:
# Normal module code
class MyClass: ...
# hundreds of lines of code...
Aside: With a module scope "break", the code would look more elegant:
#
# MyModule
#
if operating_in_dev_mode and '<frozen>' in __file__:
exec(open('dev-area/MyModule.py', 'r).read(), globals(), globals())
break
# Normal module code
class MyClass: ...
# hundreds of lines of code...
