## What it is
Puer is a Node.js command-line development server for front-end work that serves static files with automatic live reload, plus proxy mode, HTTP request mocking, and integrated weinre remote debugging. The project is deprecated in favor of its successor svrx (Server-X).

## Use cases
- serve a static site with live reload during frontend development
- reload only CSS changes without a full page refresh
- mock backend API endpoints while building a frontend
- proxy a dev server in front of an existing backend server
- remotely debug pages on mobile devices with weinre

## When to choose
- you need a zero-config live-reload static server for a simple legacy setup
- you want built-in request mocking and proxying in one lightweight CLI

## When to avoid
- starting a new project - use svrx, Vite, or browser-sync instead
- you need maintained tooling or modern build features like HMR and bundling
