Currently, I am editing the layout and contents of my page on the fly using developer tools in chrome.
Is there any way to do the same thing without having to recompile harp each and every single time (perhaps I am misunderstanding how harp works).

Sound like you might be misunderstanding a bit, yes. You can run harp server
to serve your current project at http://localhost:9000
. Then, any changes you make to the layout or metadata will be recompiled whenever you refresh.
Harp automatically recompiles whenever a new request comes in for that asset, which keeps it fast, and also means you don’t have to manually recompile the site. The harp compile
command is more if you are ready to publish the static HTML, CSS, and JavaScript somewhere (ex. Surge.sh or Apache Cordova/PhoneGap app).
This video is a bit out of date but covers the basics and might be helpful. My post on starting a blog with Harp also covers some basics.
