md-live-server

Server that renders markdown files and live updates the page each time that the file is updated.

(Current visual style is more similar to GitHub's style)

Usage

Put the binary file md-live-server in your $PATH, and then go to the directory where are the markdown files that want to live render, and just use:

> md-live-server

And then go to the browser at http://127.0.0.1:8080

Warning for vim / nvim users: vim by default selects the writting strategy, and sometimes writes directly to the files and other times renames the old file and writes a new one. This is solved by adding this line to the .vimrc / init.vim file:

set backupcopy=yes
