I have a mac, but prefer to use just Guard and the browser extensions. Fortunately, that info is still available: https://github.com/mockko/livereload After all the time that's been put into the free version by others I wish livereload.com would have a prominent link to it. But I'm glad that the gem, which I don't use because https://github.com/guard/guard-livereload is easier to install, and the browser extensions are available under the MIT license.
