Dev

The dev command allows you to develop your application through a standard browser.

Usage

wails dev <flags>

Flags

Flag	Details	Default
-compiler path/to/compiler	Use a different go compiler, eg go1.15beta1	go
-ldflags "custom ld flags"	Use given ldflags
-e list,of,extensions	File extensions to trigger rebuilds	go
-w	Show warnings	false
-v int	Verbosity level (0 - silent, 1 - default, 2 - verbose)	1
-loglevel	Loglevel to pass to the application - Trace, Debug, Info, Warning, Error	Debug

How it works

The project is built using a special mode that starts a webserver and starts listening to port 34115. When the frontend project is run independently, so long as the JS is wrapped with the runtime method ready, then the frontend will connect to the backend code via websockets. The interface should be present in your browser, and you should be able to interact with the backend as you would in a desktop app.
