Example application from lightning talk which happened during Amusing Workshops #1
See it here
##How to install
Simply clone or download the repository from github.
external_javascripts/ - here are all external libraries that we are using
raphael.js - allows us to make the animated circle
caviar-dreams.js - font used in the logo (raphael.js requires fonts to be converted in a special way)
live.js - makes automatic reloading possible
src/ - here are the files of our website
refresh-browser-example.js - here we create the animated logo
refresh-browser-example.css - here we define styles for the website
index.html - here we tie it all together
Guardfile - here we configure guard-livereload
MIT-LICENSE - legal stuff (every open source product needs a license)
README.markdown - you are here
First way of reloading files whenever their content changes is using live.js.
Its easy to use but can drain battery from your laptop quicker since it constantly polls for changes.
To check how it works just uncomment the line in public/refresh-browser-example.html
This one is a bit harder to use since it requires running commandline application and browser extensions.
But it is using operating system notifications of file changes happening. Because of that it does not take so much of resources than the previous solution.
To use it
Install:
gem guard-livereload
from your command line.
Install livereload extension in your browser.
Run:
guard
Connect your extension by clicking button "LR" in your browser (it should turn green).
And try to find and solve simple tasks you'll find in various files.
