I use LiveReloadX to automatically reload the browser as I work on my Hakyll-generated blog. LiveReloadX, and most other automatic reloading utilities work by watching the file system and notifying something in the browser to refresh the page.

My blog previously used Octopress, and I had wanted to stop using it for a while. There is nothing wrong with Octopress; it just didn't fit well with me. It has a lot of features, so seems overcomplicated for my use-case. It's also written in Ruby.

I recently started playing with Haskell's Warp in my effort to learn Haskell. Warp is small and fast web server, and doesn't come bundled with much. It also has no "magic" in it, which I think is a very good thing.
