Middleman doesn't provide this exact workflow. But for the way your originally
described your problem ("My goal is to make it simple when I save Haml file and
refresh browser to see the Html file."), it has a workflow that will work.
The idea is that you have a middleman project (which may contain files in lots
of different template languages, including Haml and Sass). Then you run the
middleman server. When your browser connects to the middleman server, Middleman
arranges for the template to be executed and sends the result it to the
browser. So, in this normal cycle, you never actually generate static HTML or
CSS. (Middleman does have a command to generate static files also, but from
your use case I don't think you need it.)
Middleman's getting started page[1] outlines the specific commands for
executing this workflow.
