Actually it works great:  
`hugo server --bind=0.0.0.0 --baseURL=http://0.0.0.0:1313`

Let’s say that I executed the above command from a Virtual Machine that has an IP address of 192.168.1.6

Now when I visit `http://192.168.1.6:1313/` on any any device that is connected on my network I get the website that I currently work on served by the Hugo Local Server with instant changes!

**This is amazing**.
