Live Development Gone - XDK 3759

XDK Error

Ever since I updated the XDK we have a lightning bolt replacing the Live Edit tab. All it will do is open IE Edge and there is no pick of any other browsers. I hope someone here can shed light on this. 

Thanks, 
Jim

There is currently no option to force the Live Preview in the XDK to go to a specific browser. It always tries to use the default browser. You have two workarounds:

  • install Chrome and make it your default browser (you will probably have to restart the XDK after you do that)
  • install standard Brackets and use the Live Preview feature directly from it (open your project's index.html file in Brackets and go from there)

The XDK uses standard Brackets, and that is the standard Brackets Live Preview feature, so using it in Brackets is the same as using it in the XDK.
