Ive been having an issue with live server where I had to press ctrl+s to update my work on the browser. I had enough of this and im looking for solutions. the five server does the same thing and now starting to get the folder directory instead of opening the html in the browser directly. any quick suggestions that work will be appreciated. please and thank you

Heya! first of thank you for making the Five Server :) it's a really great help. I just have a question. Atm the .fiveserverrc.json is working for my html. I have also an .css file for my html to make my website. But for the .css it does not autoload like it does for the.html? How do I make it that it also autoloads whenver I do changes from the .css file?

Hello Yannick, today 822.01.2023) I installed the Five Server extension.
I tried your version with .json file in the source folder of my html code - and I also tried to change settings in Live Server (Five Server) settings.
There the hooks are set (Inject Body and Highlight) - but the website will not be updated instand by typing any text in html file.
Any idea, what happend here?
Thanks Guenter

Hey man, can you show how to work with PHP with this five server? I tried but no luck for me.

Gave a try, and it works like a charm (simple html/css/js), this should be in a must list for anyone learning web

When I just Installed five server extension only. It didn't work. I mean Instant Update feature.

But after I have seen your videos then I added .fiveserverrc.json in my project root folder.

Should it have .fiveserverrc.json file in project root folder about instance update?

There is also bodyInjection and highlight settings In VSCode extension settings for Five Server.

But I Think this is not working as intended.

Your voice is very nice!
My html filename is Chinese, so a real-time preview cannot be implemented (ㄒoㄒ)


I wonder if you can understand it (I'm using the translation software)

[beardmcweird]

how do i disable the live update globally? not even chatgpt can solve it for me

[Pujastanto]

It look awsome!! Can it also run with href="*.css" & src="*.js"? i mean external css and javascript file?

Does this work with scss? I couldn't get it to work. It wasn't loading anything from the generated .css file.

It doesn't work for me, I don't know why
