The NodeJS live-server package runs a temporary server displaying any HTML/CSS/JS resources in the current folder. It automatically reloads the page in your browser when any of these files change.
- Verify that Node.js is installed. If you see anything when you run
which npm
in a terminal, it is. If not, follow the instructions at nodejs.org to install. - Install live-server:
npm install -g live-server
- Move your terminal to where your pages live:
cd <path-to-content>
- Start the server:
live-server .
- Open localhost:8080 in a browser.
