+
+Hugo may not be the first static site generator to utilize live reload
+technology, but it’s the first to do it right.
+
+The combination of Hugo’s insane build speed and live reload make
+crafting your content pure joy. Virtually instantly after you hit save
+your rebuilt content will appear in your browser.
+
+## Using livereload
+
+Hugo comes with livereload built in. There are no additional packages to
+install. A common way to use hugo while developing a site is to have
+hugo run a server and watch for changes.
+
+    hugo server --watch
+
+This will run a full functioning web server while simultaneously
+watching your file system for additions, deletions or changes within
+your:
+
+ * static files
+ * content
+ * layouts
+ * current theme
+
+Whenever anything changes Hugo will rebuild the site, continue to serve
+the content and as soon as the build is finished it will tell the
+browser and silently reload the page. Because most hugo builds are so
+fast they are barely noticeable, you merely need to glance at your open
+browser and you will see the change already there.
+
+This means that keeping the site open on a second monitor (or another
+half of your current monitor), allows you to see exactly what your
+content looks like without even leaving your text editor.
+
+## Disabling livereload
+
+Live reload accomplishes this by injecting javascript into the pages it
+creates that creates a web socket client to the hugo web socket server.
+
+Awesome for development, but not something you would want to do in
+production. Since many people use `hugo server --watch` in production to
+instantly display any updated content, we’ve made it easy to disable the
+live reload functionality.
+
+    hugo server --watch --disableLiveReload
