PlugLiveReload - add live reload to your plug for development

Hey all,

I created a library that enables live reload functionality in development for plug, plug_live_reload! It is ported from the same live reload functionality you are used to from Phoenix, PhoenixLiveReloader.

This will be useful for those making applications in Plug that miss some of the live reloading conveniences that Phoenix has. With this library, your page can automatically refresh when your JS assets change or it can live-update your CSS without a full page refresh.

This does not do any code reloading, though. I hope to add a separate plug for that at some point in the future.

Check out the code!
