    Live web development in Emacs

  • I am trying to get skewer-mode to work, in particular, I want to see changes I make to html files in emacs to be automatically updated in the corresponding browser window. I have tried to follow the descriptions on the package's GitHub page and also this Emacs Stack-Exchange post, but neither of these affords me the "live change" I seek, and most other guides don't regard HTML, but only CSS or Javascript (which I'll also need, but that's for later).

  • impatient-mode

    Impatient html mode. See your changes in the browser as you type

  • I've used impatient-mode already for this: https://github.com/skeeto/impatient-mode it relies on simple-httpd, like skewer.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • web-mode

    web template editing mode for emacs

  • Did you try web-mode? https://github.com/fxbois/web-mode/ It's the mode that made me accept HTML. There are shortcuts to: delete a node, wrap a node with another one, delete an attribute, copy a node, re-indent the buffer, go to the beginning/end of the nodeā€¦
