  [{:phoenix_live_reload, "~> 1.0"}]
end

Backends

This project uses fs as a dependency to watch your filesystem whenever there is a change and it supports the following operating systems:

• Linux via inotify (installation required)
• Windows via inotify-win (no installation required)

Skipping remote CSS reload

All stylesheets are reloaded without a page refresh anytime a style is detected as having changed. In certain cases such as serving stylesheets from a remote host, you may wish to prevent unnecessary reload of these stylesheets during development. For this, you can include a data-no-reload attribute on the link tag, ie:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://example.com/style.css" data-no-reload>
