Default:

if not status_ok then
return
end
live_server.setup({
port = 8080,

quiet = false,
no_css_inject = false, -- Disables css injection if true, might be useful when testing out tailwindcss

})Example:
local status_ok, live_server = pcall(require, "live_server")
if not status_ok then
return
end
live_server.setup({
port = 7567,
browser_command = "firefox", -- Command or executable path
quiet = false,

})- npm
This plugin installs live-server to
:lua print(vim.fn.stdpath("data") .. "/live-server/")The initial implementation took about a day since I am quite new to Lua and Neovim programming / API
I was bored of Javascript and wanted to learn about creating plugins for Neovim using Lua, also I wasn't able to find plugins that would work similarly to this one!
- 1-1 feature parity with VSCode's Live Server extension
