- Rated 5 out of 5by Sin, a month agoWorks like a charm and is exactly what I was looking for. I'm using it with VSCode's live server to host some web assets that I am auto reloading using this extension. Only downside is the permissions seem excessive but I am not experienced enough with extension dev to comment on that.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Sam, 3 years agoPretty much an "must have" for anybody doing dev work on a static site.
It's HTTP server agnostic so you're not tied to a vendor or a full-fledged framework with a built-in dev server.
It works exceptionally well and takes practically no RTFM to get up and running.
The only thing to keep in mind is that this extension only knows the information being passed to it by your web server. Having it able to reload on a change to a file at '/tmp/watcher' still requires a configuration to expose that file to the browser itself. - Rated 5 out of 5by Jalkhov, 3 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by JDG, 6 years agoI'm using this extension with MAMP as the server for local development and it's working like a charm. Too bad it requires a server, but what can you do?
- Rated 5 out of 5by arnofly, 7 years agoThis extension is amazing! It'a a must have for each web developper. It do perfectly the job on local files if you use a local server as Wampserver for example, instead of open each file with your browser.
But nothing is perfect ;)
I would like an option that let's the user add exceptions, because I found a limitation. It's quite look like a bug, but it's not. I explain that I want to say. In my realod rules every files of my project are monitored. This setting is fast and do the job perfectly. But in a contact page of my project, I put a homemade Captcha with 2 numbers that change each time the page is loaded, so the code is different each time and Live Reload reloads this page infinitely...
So please, add this option ;) Thank you for your job! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14217107, 7 years agoMy new favorite addon as a web dev. Thank you.
I couldn't use the HMR for CSS with Encore (wrap for Webpack). It solved my problem and I don't need fastidious conditions according to my environment anymore, and don't need to emulate those assets via a proxy.
Now a simple "watch" task from Webpack is enough and keep my config clean. I wish I heard of this addon sooner <3 - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13949423, 7 years ago
