Package Exports

webpack-livereload-plugin

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (webpack-livereload-plugin) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Why?

Yes, there's already webpack-dev-server that handles live reloading and more complex scenarios. This project aims to solve the case where you want assets served by your app server, but still want reloads triggered from webpack's build pipeline.

Todo

Bundle in the livereload.js making the <script> tag uneccessary
