I started my studies with gulp and I loved livereload, but I only managed with static files like this link . My goal is to start the gulp, however on the embedded php server (localhost -s Localhost: 8000) or on the server with Xampp or Lampp, instead of the server node. I saw some people commenting on a solution with browsersync and another one with gulp-connect-php I could not implement both. If you know a solution and it is not a plugin for the browser, I am grateful.
