vlt-watch
vlt-watch watches a local folder for changes as you work, automatically adding and removing files from a remote JCR so you don't have to think about it.
This is a lightweight alternative to Brackets for AEM development.

From an AEM quickstart package
From the JackRabbit FileVault project
With Homebrew on Mac
brew install vault-cli
See Hombrew Documentation
Make sure it's accessible on the command line.
# which vlt
/usr/local/bin/vlt
Step 2: Download and install the vlt-watch tool
(Install Node.js first if you haven't already)
