Good evening!
I am on a linux machine using the Hyper terminal as my day-to-day terminal emulator. I have found a color scheme I really like, but unfortunately, it seems there isn't a hyper theme available that's close enough to my likings. I thought it would be simple to just use a custom theme, but I'm struggling to see whether or not it's possible.
For now, i have an index.js file I copied from another theme, replacing the colors with the ones i want, and a package.json, in a local directory, but since I'm not running a dev version of hyper, i don't see how i can use them on my machine, without publishing them. Is there a solution to this?
Thanks in advance!!

I've been searching for-ever!
I`m working on windows and ubuntu, mostly on windows.
I searched the web for lot's of external libraries such as opn, open etc' but none of these could open this URL:
chrome://extensions
I want to put in the the script tag inside package.json
or in my build.js script
so that every time after I run "npm run build"
the chrome://extensions page will reload and also the additional page I`m testing on.
I once was able to do that exactly, but I lost that solution.
part of the problem is that I can't open chrome:
the ':' symbol is not recognized in the OS as valid protocol or something and it is escaped from chrome address bar if executed from command line.
I have tried many solutions.
I am not happy with the different resolutions proposed in the research I've made in Stack.O.
reloader as an extension is out of the question I want a script.
your kind help.
Assaf.
Clerc - for Chrome Live Extension Reloading Client
I built Clerc for exactly this purpose. npm run build won't be enough though. You need to hook up a LiveReload compatible server to watch for file changes, and clerc will listen for the reload messages.
Edit: Oh sorry. I missed the part where you said "reloader is out of the question". I still think this is your best option though.
I'm very new to coding and web development. I'm working with HTML and CSS at the moment. The trouble is, I can't see what I'm coding.
How do you load a HTML and CSS file onto a local host so that you can see what you are doing?
Really appreciate it if you could give your input. :)
I've had this question as well, haha. But you'll learn.
So there are two solutions here; one using a localhost and one just simply viewing the file.
I'm not sure what device you're on, but to view your file, just simply double click it as you would do to open any other file. Then you will be able to see your code and what you're programming.
The second solution is the use of a localhost; it's basically a test environment for your website to view it during development.
To set up a localhost on a Macintosh device, you simply go to the Finder and search for Terminal, later open it and write; python -m SimpleHTTPServer.
If you have a folder for your files as well (which is recommended for future reference), just use cd and type where it is. The easiest method would be placing it on the Desktop, and then write in the Terminal; cd Desktop -> cd the-folder-you-have-your-code-in and then write python -m SimpleHTTPServer.
To access this server, just type localhost in the search bar where you'd search for items on the web.
Hope this helps you, and welcome to the developing society!
For future reference, when you become a full-fledged developer, don't use Homestead/Laravel, it's a pain in the ass when you don't understand it. Use WAMP, MAMP, or XAMPP based on what device you're on.
Just open the html file with your browser. On Windows, in Windows Explorer right click on the file and choose open with, then choose your browser.
file:///[complete path to your file] does the trick in Chrome, Firefox and IE, but as #Atrix said, right click + open in [your favourite browser] works too.
You might want to install a full-fledged webserver one day or another though, like Apache or nginx. You also have full stacks servers available (usually coming with a PHP interpreter and a database server), like WAMP (on Windows), or XAMPP (on Windows, Linux and MacOS)
You can do the following:
On a Window machine at the prompt type start the-HTML-file-name
Here is an efficient alternative:
Go to W3Schools Tryit Editor. Wait for the page to fully load. Then enter the following line in the browser's console and press Enter:
document.getElementById('textareawrapper').setAttribute("onkeup","submitTryit(1)")
Now start typing your code in the text area. This is far better than working with a text editor as it shows the output directly as you type.
I have been learning web development for some time and I have noticed on tutorials on youtube that when someone change source file (html, css, js) the webpage opened in browser is automatically refreshing. I have read something about live-reload but it's too complicated for me and there is no step by step tutorial.
I have found some similar questions, but the case is that refreshing happens by side of local server not the code editor or browser as is mentioned in questions that I found.
I'm using Apache as my local server. Sublime Text for writing a code and Ubuntu operating system.
Here is the video that shows what I am exactly trying to say.

Npm and live-server doesn't work on my computer at all.
Sorry for my english, but I'm not a native speaker. I'm looking forward for your help.
Anyone knows anything?
Install sublime web server using package manager ( or in your case continue to use Apache )
Use http://livejs.com/
I was using a Chrome shortcut with allow-file-access-from-files in the target to work on my three.js student project files. But sometime this morning this stopped working and it appeared Chrome had been updated. I redid the shortcut but no joy.
Part of the project I'm doing is building three.js animation that works in a common browser (for which I chose Chrome).
Is there any way to get Chrome to allow file access again?
Thanks.
The answer I came up with was to use Firefox instead of Chrome changing the security policy as detailed in https://github.com/mrdoob/three.js/wiki/How-to-run-things-locally
Not a perfect answer but with a deadline looming it's the best workable answer for me right now as trying different variations of Chrome, trying Wamp and also Mongoose didn't work. If I had more time I would work out how to use Python or probably node.js as I've seen it mentioned a number of times as being the faster option.
What gman stated is true, using the Chrome flag (and changing Firefox's security policy) does create a big security risk. But only if you use that shortcut (and it's tabs etc.) for anything other than accessing your own local files. I've been scrupulous about not using it for the internet but don't use this method if you can't be strict with yourself.
Ideally I'd recommend beginning any project with node.js.
Gman's answer is good. If you're in windows environment, and use npm for package management the easiest is to install http-server globally:
npm install -g http-server
Then simply run http-server in any of your project directories:
Eg. d:\my_project> http-server
Starting up http-server, serving ./
Available on:
http:169.254.116.232:8080
http:192.168.88.1:8080
http:192.168.0.7:8080
http:127.0.0.1:8080
Hit CTRL-C to stop the server
Easy, and no security risk of accidentally leaving your browser open vulnerable.
DON'T USE THAT FLAG! You're opening yourself to having your online accounts being hacked and your local data stolen. Here are 2 proof of concept examples

I have a wordpress template and in that there are many PHP files and CSS files. I just want to know how can i convert every php file into HTML file so that i can check them in the browser and i want to change wherever i feel necessary.
You need to render them with a machine that has PHP with Wordpress installed, and you could then save them as HTML from there.
The quickest way to do that would be to use EasyPHP or XAMPP (assuming that you are on Windows).
To follow up on what #Blowski said. Here is a useful article which will help you walk through the right steps to installing XAMPP on your machine. Using XAMPP For Local Theme Dev.
