Why won't my Shopify theme hot reload during local development?

Store Design
1

Hello everyone,

I am trying to develop a theme for Shopify using the Shopfy CLI and GitHub. The command shopify theme serve is giving me a web page where I can see my theme, but I won’t see any changes in the code I’m editing locally in my IDE until I’ve commited and pushed my new code on GitHub. Is this a normal behavior ? Can someone help me please ?

Thank you for reading me.

PS : Sorry if this issue has already been addressed but I couldn’t find anything about it.

Hi @flo_1 , welcome to Shopify Community.

Be sure to have the latest version of Shopify CLI installed, version 2.2.2 at the moment I am writing this.

If it doesn’t work

  • Can you check if there are errors in console?
  • Which browser are you using?
  • Are you connected to http://127.0.0.1:9292/?
