How can I turn caching off in Chrome for a particular website?

I'm developing Javascript for a website called www.example.com and Chrome keeps caching earlier versions of my code. I can continuously clear the cache, but that's becoming a time sink. Any other options?

If you do not want to change the code for your webpage. You can simply open developer tools on Google Chrome. Shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+i on windows.

You'll find a gear on the bottom-right corner that'll take you to settings. Check "disable cache" and you're good to go.

I do this myself for development. I use CTRL-F5. Its like a force refresh. This refreshes the page including re-downloading any referenced JS files or CSS files even if they were cached.
