##### Using Connect Middleware
Since live reloading is used when developing, you may want to disable building for production (and are not using the browser extension). One method is to use Connect middleware to inject the script tag into your page. Try the [connect-livereload](https://github.com/intesso/connect-livereload) middleware for injecting the live reload script into your page.
##### Rolling Your Own Live Reload
Live reloading is made easy by the library [tiny-lr](https://github.com/mklabs/tiny-lr). It is encouraged to read the documentation for `tiny-lr`. If you would like to trigger the live reload server yourself, simply POST files to the URL: `http://localhost:35729/changed`. Or if you rather roll your own live reload implementation use the following example:
```js
// Create a live reload server instance
var lrserver = require('tiny-lr')();
// Listen on port 35729
lrserver.listen(35729, function(err) { console.log('LR Server Started'); });
// Then later trigger files or POST to localhost:35729/changed
lrserver.changed({body:{files:['public/css/changed.css']}});
```
