Nice job, thx!
Works great! Thx!
Works great! Thx!
Works great! Thx!
Does someone knows how to change the default behaviour of browser-sync which automatically delivers index.html as the root directory?
I tried changing that behaviour by simply defining a route inside my app.js but somehow it gets ignored.
Nice job, but i have a question?
It's just working when i access http://localhost:3000, when I access http://localhost:3000/users it not working, help me?
Looks promising but it breaks after running for the first time with this error:
`

`
Any ideas why ?
Heres a 2019 way of setting up the gulpfile since that code no longer works for running multiple tasks
const gulp = require("gulp");
const browserSync = require("browser-sync");
var nodemon = require("gulp-nodemon");
gulp.task("nodemon", cb => {
let started = false;
return nodemon({
script: "server.js"
}).on("start", () => {
if (!started) {
cb();
started = true;
}
});
});
gulp.task(
"browser-sync",
gulp.series("nodemon", () => {
browserSync.init(null, {
proxy: "http://localhost:7000",
files: ["public/**/*.*"],
port: 9000
});
})
);
gulp.task("serve", gulp.series("browser-sync", () => {}));
Thanks @Dmitri801, works great!

For those who have the "loading forever" issue, I had to install nodemon, and then run nodemon in a separate terminal for the gulp task to load. Don't know exactly why though.
