• Effortless Deployment & Streamlined Workflow: Automatically compiles and deploys the application upon saving files. • Accelerated Development: Smaller feedback loops foster faster development and testing cycles. • Real-time Visualization: Changes are instantly visible in the browser, facilitating near real-time feedback. • Enhanced Compatibility: Ensures compatibility with different browser versions and configurations, providing a consistent experience across platforms. • Context Preservation: Retains session state across multiple redeployments, preventing the loss of user-related data. • Enhanced Testing & Debugging: Facilitates realistic testing of user journeys without disruptions caused by redeployments. Assists in isolating issues influenced by session state or user flow across multiple steps. • Efficient Troubleshooting: Well-formatted and easily readable logs simplify debugging tasks.
