I am working on a simple web app to serve some HTML and static files in a Spring Boot maven project. I am using Spring Boot devtools with Live Reload Chrome extension to help with the development process.
My maven project is pretty simple, as described in the screenshot. There's a src directory and a target directory, but the live reloader is only detecting changes in the target directory. This means that if I want live reload on my HTML files, I need to edit them in the target/classes directory. This is not ideal, since mvn clean will clear out the target directory.
I want Spring Boot to reload the page when changes are made in the src/main/resources directory, not just target.
How do I tell Spring Boot live reloader to watch the src/main/resources directory instead of just the target/classes directory?
