Guidelines for efficient use of the Live Preview feature
The feature is specifically designed for HTML/CSS/JS development and best practices include:
- Three-document linkage model: Created according to a standard front-end project structure
index.html
+style.css
+script.js
By<link>
cap (a poem)<script>
The tags are associated, and modifying any of the files triggers a global refresh - Responsive Debugging TipsRight-click on the preview window and select "Switch Device Toolbar" to simulate the rendering effect under different screen sizes, combined with CSS media query for adaptive design.
- stateful retention policy: The editor's autosave mechanism with local storage can preserve DOM state (such as form input values) after code refresh, making it easy to debug interaction logic.
Example of a typical workflow:
- Quickly build skeleton structures in HTML and generate base tags via AI
- Observe style changes in real time while writing CSS, and use visual tools such as color pickers to aid coding
- Bi-directional debugging combining console output and page behavior feedback when developing JavaScript functionality
Note: Complex SPA projects are recommended to be split into multiple preview modules for development; if it involves back-end API calls, you need to use browser developer tools with debugging network requests.
