Live reloading

[pi-ron]

Hi stefan, I'm wondering how we can get livereloading to work with vite + webflow extension serve

[stefanwittwer]

I've been wondering that too. I think the problem is that the webflow extension serve command does not really support HMR. Not sure if or how it would possible to work around that limitation.

Yeh, it's a bit of a pain. I just work in another tab where possible and only jump into the designer version when I need to run Webflow API. That's obviously not ideal though!

@pi-ron hey can you help me to run the extension? I didn't find any url provided in the command line when I am using build/dev script. How do I use the build version on webflow? The reason of my question is , in webflow I just saw an url which is asking for an url. How do you use it? can you explain a bit?

Hi @habib-N19 , have you followed the quickstart guide https://developers.webflow.com/data/docs/getting-started-designer-extensions ?

There are also boilerplates available now in the latest Webflow CLI
