Are you really frustrated to switch from your text editor to your browser to see the changes you’ve applied? In this screencast Aslam shows you how you can boost your productivity by using XRefresh
Notes:
Prevent unexpected refreshing
To prevent unexpected refreshing, set very specific paths to your projects in ~/.xrefresh-server.yml. By default it monitors whole home folder with some exceptions.
1 | mate ~/.xrefresh-server.yml |
Comment out the first line under path and include the absolute path to your project folder.
1 2 3 | # here specify list of paths to monitor paths: # - /Users/aslam # by default watch user's home directory |
– /Users/aslam/Projects/Active/speedy
# – /you/may/add/here/some/other/path
# – /you/may/add/here/some/another/path
– Thanks to Antonin Hildebrand (Creator of XRefresh)
