Do you know if there is an option to auto-reload the CSS on change? Love that in chrome.

You might want to use wepack dev server or the live reload addon. That's what I use together with Firefox (Developer Edition).

Sadly reload changes the state of SPAs, that's why the sneaky CSS-only reload is so useful.

Is this feature natively built into the devtools of chrome or a chrome extension?

yes, quite hidden and complicated to set up though, because it needs to map the server stuff to the local file system.

ok, I think that's not available with firefox devtools, but in case your SPA is react based, I think that the react devtools addon has hot (and state preserving) reloading: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/react-devtool...

btw, do you have a link? I wonder if this works with sass/less and uglify transpilers...
