Jekyll has just added a new feature which is Auto- Regeneration. This update is
really neat and saves web developers a lot of time. Before the update, Jekyll
has given developers the option to launch their website on the local server
localhost:4000
by using the command:
1
jekyll serve
However, anytime a change is made you would have to rerun the command to
regenerate the site.Now Jekyll has a neat feature known as auto-regeneration. Basically, it will
watch for any changes in the directory of your website and will automatically
regenerate anytime a change is made. You just need to add --watch
as so:
1
jekyll serve --watch
