Nice extension, it may be worth in the readme explaining how it’s different to https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-livepreview https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-livepreview which has been around for a long time and maintained by Microsoft.
- anoncow 2y agoI thought of MS Frontpage for a very brief moment as I was clicking the link to Live Preview.
- noworriesnate 2y agoPinegrow[1] is somewhat similar to MS Frontpage IIRC. I highly recommend it. [1] https://pinegrow.com/ https://pinegrow.com/
- vladsanchez 2y agoNever heard of it, reminds me of DreamWeaver, instant favorite. Thanks for sharing.
- qwertox 2y agoI think it's mainly the `No additional processes` point. Live Preview serves the page, likely by spawning another process to host the server.
- urin 2y agoI have updated the README to address similar comments and issues. https://github.com/urin/vscode-web-visual-editor?tab=readme-ov-file#alternatives https://github.com/urin/vscode-web-visual-editor?tab=readme-...
- politelemon 2y agoThanks, good work on this extension.
- braggerxyz 2y agoBecause of the debacle around VSCode extensions owned by Microsoft that recently surfaced here on HN, it's good to have an alternative.
- makestuff 2y agoDo you have a link? Curious to know what the concerns were.
- ensignavenger 2y agoMany of Microsoft's extensions are closed source. This one does not appear to be, but MS has been known to replace open source VS Code extensions with closed source ones in the past.
