I have time using gulp, but I would like to know if using a local PHP server I can update the page immediately, or in its absence any other tool that allows me to update every change to PHP files
Add a php task to your gulpfile.
var src = {
php:'./public_html/**/*.php',
};
gulp.task('php', function(){
gulp.src(src.php)
.pipe(reload({stream:true}));
});
gulp.task ('watch', function(){
// other watch tasks
gulp.watch(src.php, ['php']);
});
