Auto-Deploy and Live Reload

Save-triggered deployments and CSS hot-swap behavior.

Auto-deploy triggers a staging deployment each time you save a file. CSS changes are hot-swapped in the browser without a full page reload.

Enable Auto-Deploy

Toggle Auto-Deploy in the deployment panel. When enabled, saving any file (Cmd+S) triggers an automatic staging deployment.

CSS Hot-Swap

CSS changes apply immediately in the browser via hot-swap. No full page reload is required. JavaScript changes require a page reload to take effect.

Rate Limits

Auto-deploy is rate-limited to 60 deployments per minute. If you exceed the limit, the UI shows a countdown timer and queues the next deploy.

Constraints

  • Auto-deploy targets staging only. Production deploys are always manual.
  • Build errors during auto-deploy appear in the Problems panel.
  • Large projects with many files may have longer build times.
