Webpack launch browser automatically

Question

Gulp + live reload serves up my content on localhost and (here\'s what I\'m after) launches the browser automatically at the server url whenever i run the gulp

Answer 1

For those using Node.js (and npm): put the command in the npm start script:

MAC

"scripts": {
    "start": "webpack-dev-server & open http://localhost:8080/"
  }

WINDOWS

"scripts": {
    "start": "start http://localhost:8000/ & webpack-dev-server"
}

Thanks to Enzo Ferey for pointing out that the command needs to look different when on Windows.
