 +===== Live Preview in Geany =====
 +
 +Using the great //Web helper// plugin (from the [[http://plugins.geany.org|Geany-Plugins]] package)
 +you can view and test your site directly in Geany without switching to an external browser.
 +
 +Simply enable the //Web helper// plugin in Geany's plugin manager dialog, open it preferences dialog
 +and enable the option "Browser auto reload" (to automatically reload the page when you save a file in Geany).
 +
 +Then you will get a new tab "Web preview" in the left message window (or whereever you configured the plugin
 +to show up) and you can enter any weg page address, e.g. those of your currently edited Django project.
 +Below is a screenshot demonstrating the plugin: the opened web page on the left, the template code on the right
 +and in the terminal window at the bottom, Django's runserver command is running:
 +
 +{{ :howtos:geany_webhelper_django.png?550 |}}
 +
 +This way you can edit your Django and template code in Geany as usual and have it automatically shown
 +as web page in the //Web helper// plugin without the need of switching to an external browser, and
 +the Django debug server can also be ran in Geany, using the embedded terminal.
