Live reloading with air

Live reloading saves time by running your go commands when files changes are detected with air-verse/air package.

Let’s say we have this simple Go program:

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
	fmt.Println("Hello, World!")
}

Install air: go install github.com/air-verse/air@latest Initialize: air init — this will generate .air.coml Run air:

airverse air
