Fast Hot Reload CLI Logo

Fast Hot Reload (fasthr)

This is a tiny (6.5kb) CLI tool that mixes together no-bs-typescript-server-boilerplate, fastify, and livereload to easily spin up a hot reload http server on the current directory.

Development

I chose Rollup to handle the transpiling, compression, and any other transformations needed to get this repo's Typescript code running as quickly and performant as possible.

yarn dev

Runs Rollup in watch mode which means it will hot-reload the server as you modify your source! This includes running node with the --inspect flag so you can inspect your code using Google Chrome Dev Tools (by opening chrome://inspect in your browser), you're welcome ;)
