Trying to hack some HTML and CSS. Are there anything like the above that can serve a local website to localhost, be built on Linux and refreshes the page when files are changed?

There is live-server on npm but I was hoping for something that is available in my distro's package manager (or if it isn't I can add it). Hugo has a serve mode that does exactly this but it is limited to hugo projects.

Any input is appreciated. Thanks.

For autorefresh you could combine your server of choice with ENTR. Entr watches the files and reruns the command if anything changes.
