Show HN: A lite/cross-everything page reloader for web developers

1 points by lwjhere ↗ HN
I spend some days developed a desktop application ( still a working prototype ) for web developers.

It will detect file ( html, css, images ) changes, and instantly ( not periodically ) refresh the browsers( any browser that opened these web pages ).

I think it will save us a lot of time "switching windows and pressing F5" ( if you have dual screen ), and keep our work in flow.

------------------------------

The nice things are:

1. It supports all modern browsers. You can even edit html/css on your PC, and your pages on iPhone will auto refresh. No need to install any plugins.

2. It supports all editors, no need to change your preferences.

3. It cross platforms.

There is still much to do, and I would like to hear your advice.

---------------------------------

Here is a demo video(1'30"):

p.s. I was planning to go freemium. If you are a web developer, will you pay for it?
