In this article I share how I use BrowserSync to see changes in WordPress websites (on localhost) instantly in the browser without having to manually refresh the browser.

I am an independent WordPress web consultant with 10 years of experience in WordPress theme installation, customization, administration, maintenance, support, documentation, troubleshooting and PSD/design to WP.

As advised in Slack, use genesistesting:8888 for the proxy and not just genesistesting.
