Auto-Start Development Servers Module#316
Conversation

@DevelopmentCats can you please review this PR |
|
I am also wondering if it would be worth having the module output something that could be used by a coder_app resource to provide a dynamic live preview based on the detected project type. |
@DevelopmentCats so whats on your mind |
You already have a check for verifying that there is a running app as a result of the module running at the end of I think what you should do is take this and set the project port to a local which you could then use in a coder app resource to set a preview app for this module. You could also set a variable to disable this feature in the module if you would like, but I think this would fit perfectly in this module with this logic. IE.. |

This looks great! the only thing you might want to point the coder app icon to an actual existing icon or emoji in coder. |
