📄 Description

Hello,

I have enabled the Live Reload feature in ElectronNET CLI with new command "debug". This feature helps me a lot to increase my development when I need to test my methods with an electron window.

To view the video demo please click on this http://somup.com/cYej1tha0Q link

To enable the LiveReload you have to set the LiveReload variable to true see the below code in Startup.cs

public async void ElectronBootstrap()
 {
 var browserWindow = await Electron.WindowManager.CreateWindowAsync(new BrowserWindowOptions {
                Width = 1500,
                Height = 940,
                Show = true,
                LiveReload = true,
                DarkTheme = true
 });
await browserWindow.WebContents.Session.ClearCacheAsync();
browserWindow.OnReadyToShow += () => browserWindow.Show();
browserWindow.SetTitle("LiveReload Demo");
}

If you like this feature to be apart of ElectronNET please approve and merge and I create an actual demo video for step by step how to enable live reload with ElectronNET.

Thank yous
