Vite Live Preview Plugin

vite-live-preview is a Vite plugin designed to provide a live preview server specifically for Vite builds executed with the `--watch` flag. Unlike the standard `vite dev` server, which prioritizes Hot Module Replacement (HMR) for rapid development, this plugin focuses on serving a production-like build output, automatically reloading the browser page whenever a rebuild completes. The current stable version is 0.4.0, and the project appears actively maintained on GitHub, with recent updates. A key differentiator is its explicit non-support for HMR, making it suitable for scenarios where a full page reload is acceptable or preferred, or when simulating a built artifact in a watch mode. It allows for detailed configuration of the preview server, including port settings, reload delays, and handling of complex network setups like reverse proxies via a `clientPort` option. Developers should note that Vite plugins configured in the main `vite.config.ts` are not automatically inherited by the preview server and must be re-added via the plugin's `config` option if needed.
