Preview a Single Lightning Web Component in Your Browser (Generally Available)
Use Single Component Live Preview to run a real-time preview of a Lightning web component in your browser. This feature, which is now generally available, includes some changes since the beta release.
Where: This change applies to Lightning Experience in all editions.
When: Single Component Live Preview is generally available starting in the week of April 13, 2026.
How: This feature was previously called Local Dev for single components. For more information about how Local Dev feature names have changed, see Local Dev is Now Salesforce Live Preview.
Also, the Salesforce CLI now automatically installs the Live Preview plug-in for you, so you no longer need to install it manually. If you try to run Live Preview commands without first enabling the feature, the CLI now prompts you to turn it on inside your IDE.
