Browser-sync with php is it wrong?

Question

PHP

Already exhausted. The second day I can not cope with these infernal tools. Help me please.
I want to make a website using php and have browser-sync work. Yes, the Internet is full of all sorts of posts about this, but there are preprocessors everywhere and all that. I would just like browser-sync to update a regular php page with regular css and js. Do not need anything else. I myself tried probably 20 times to write and rewrite what is said in these manuals, it did not work out. Please write who can gulpfile.js with a focus on the teapot itself of teapots. There is an open server, but there is a site in the root folder, without any app, etc.

Answer 1

// include gulp
var gulp                = require('gulp');
var browserSync         = require('browser-sync').create();
var localhost           = 'site.loc'; // изменить на свой хост
// browser-sync task and settings
gulp.task('browserSync', function(){
    browserSync.init({
        open: 'external',
        host: localhost,
        proxy: localhost,
        port: 8080
    });
});
// start watchers
gulp.task('watch', ['browserSync'], function(){
    gulp.watch('**/*.*', browserSync.reload);
});

Actually, we put gulp and browserSync, then npm install.
Well, the whole thing starts through gulp watch.
