Hey @timknapen - there are a couple tools that'll let you do this:

There's also the iOS simulator (if you have XCode installed) that you can use to test iOS devices easily - I find this comes in handy for quick testing :) https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/IDEs/Conceptual/iOS_Simulator_Guide/Introduction/Introduction.html
I've been doing my testing mostly in the iOS simulator, but it's just a simulator. For typography etc. I like to test on the actual device to see the right sizing. This is probably the wrong place to ask, but I don't get why i can't access the dugway server from another device if I run it on port 80. When I run my apache server on the same port I have no problem at all. What am I missing?
@timknapen by default the dugway server only binds to the ip address 127.0.0.1
. You can specify an option on the command line that allows it to listen on other ports/ips but it's configured this way by default for security. Try running dugway server --host=0.0.0.0
. This will cause dugway to bind to all IP addresses on your system. It will be available to any devices on your local network using your computers hostname or IP address.
Ah great! This works perfectly! I was expecting that specifying the port was going to be enough. Thanks a lot!
Hi,
Is it possible to access my local test Dugway server from a another device on the same network? I would love to test directly from my iphone while running the Dugway server on my macbook.
