serve-dev

🏗️ A very simple but highly customizable server for local web development

• 👀 Watch source files
• 🔁 Live reload when changes occur
• 🏃‍♂️ Quick to set up
• 💪 Unopinionated about how source files get compiled

Setup

yarn add --dev serve-dev

// server.mjs
// node server.mjs (Node v13+)
 
import DevServer from 'serve-dev';
 
new DevServer({
  root: 'public',
  port: 9000,
  watch: {
    paths: ['src'],
    onChange(filePath) {
      console.log(`${filePath} changed.`);
      return {shouldReloadPage: true};
    }
  },
}).start()
