Hosts manager takes effect immediately on switch
We usually have to switch between a bunch of test environments which have same domains but different IPs. Since it's troublesome to modify hosts directly, we use some tools to manage it. I've tried HostAdmin, SwitchHosts!, HostManager and so forth but found that they all have the same problem: browser relaunch is required in order to take effect after switch.
So I decide to solve this problem by means of "Reinventing the wheel", and as a Go enthusiast, I choose Go to develop it. If you're interested in this project please fork it and pull request is preferred :)
