Hello, I didn't realize I haven't been benefiting from live reload despite setting it up in my Makefile. After digging about today it turns out my use of https://github.com/go-swiss/compress Brotli middleware was causing issues, and that is not the case when using other gzip or middleware implementation. Without diving deeper, it seems weird that this compression middleware creates a problem, because it is using the same Brotli package as templ's under the hood for proxy.go. Probably a case of implementation where compressed handler got written to ResponseWriter and flushed, so there was nothing to inspect when templ got its chance.
Regardless, I think it'd be a good idea to clarify upfront that the Content-Type is important for the JS script insertion and hint at middleware implementation being an issue.
