About tab-reload-notify

Reload tabs with the file URI scheme when the content of the corresponding file changes. Useful for playing around with HTML files locally, or when using the browser as a media/document viewer in tandem with generator programs (e.g. LaTeX/typst generating PDF files). For this extension to work, the corresponding native messaging host has to be installed. It can be installed from the extension's GitHub releases page (Homepage URL).
