I am looking for a more modern Weinre alternative
Weinre has been without support for about 3 years
Weinre allows me to generate a local server (Example: http://192.168.0.1:8888) exclusive to remotely debug
There are many good alternatives like devtool but... they don't allow you to mount a local server
The reason why I am looking for a remote debugging system is because I want to be able to debug from one Tablet to another tablet, the first tablet that runs the "devtools" from a URL and the second with my page to debug
Tools like Chrome USB debugging only works from a PC plugged into a phone, but not from a phone to another phone over the internet
Do you know any package that allows me to create a devtools server?
iOS WebKit debug proxy is a great modern alternative.
It allows you to debug directly in Chrome with live preview.

I'm using VS Code to develop an Ionic 2 app and using it's chrome debugging extension to step through the code within VS Code. Being an Ionic app, I primarily want to run it in device mode to simulate mobile device, but when I open the Dev Tools window Chrome's internal debugger automatically connects and breaks the connection with VS Code. It's really annoying that those two functions are connected with each other. Regardless, is there a way to work around this?
According to this VS forum post, https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/2828/vs-2017-rc1-cant-disable-chrome-debugging-support.html, "It looks like they added an option in Debugging > General called Enable Javascript debugging for ASP.NET (Chrome and IE) to disable this. I think this report can be closed."
Disclamer: I copied that quote from the forum post and have no intention of plagirism.
I ask here because I've asked on the Unity3D forums (in July) and nobody has responded, and I still have the same issue.
I have an AWS EC2 instance and I am using it to develop with Unity3D.
The problem is that while the keyboard and mouse work perfectly fine in the editor, the mouse stops responding when in "play" mode.
I access my EC2 instance via Windows Remote Desktop, I have an Administrators account and I have all drivers up to date.
Any ideas?
Update
I am doing research, so cross-platform compatibility is not a concern. I'm using Windows because the tools I require, require Windows. Changing OS is not an option.
I've tried starting the editor with admin. I've also tried launching the remote desktop with admin. Nothing fixes it.
Even the standard Unity3D demo applications have this issue, so it is not something that I am doing.
Is there any way to remotely debug a mobile web app in a W10&Edge phone from a computer through a USB connection? I mean, the same way we debug web apps in Android and iOS through Chrome and Safari dev tools.
If it is posible, which are the requirements of the computer? Would it be posible from a W7 or W8 computer?
I do not believe it is possible via USB, but you can use something like VorlonJS to debug websites remotely, even on mobile devices.
I demo exactly how to do this in a sample on GitHub.
Developer:
Simply navigate to your dashboard at http://vorlondebugger.azurewebsites.net/dashboard/default. This is your dashboard for viewing who is currently on the Vorlon demo site.
Users:
Instruct them to navigate to http://vorlondemoapp.azurewebsites.net/, which is a basic HTML5 boilerplate site.
Usage:
Look at your dashboard, and you'll now see that the users are viewing the page. You can alter their code on-the-fly.
I had a same question. But I solve my problem with this:
I copied html+js code into my UWP application and then I can remote debug it with Visual Studio
What is to stop you using a WAMP server (or similar) to run single-user business database applications day-to-day?
I read everywhere that WAMP and the like are intended for the development of web apps, but why can't they be used to deploy desktop apps - what're the downsides?
Personally I think WAMP/MAMP/LAMP are great applications that CAN be used for production servers.
I have started doing this myself as I do not have the complete knowledge in server administration on the linux end and my PHP applications are not compatible with IIS.
If you are a small operation than it should save you time then go for it.
If your business grows and you can afford to put on staff to manage dedicated servers with the Apache, PHP ect all installed separately then I also recommend this.
The main difference I can see is that WAMP probably wont be as scalable as the preferred setup. The binaries are all integrated and sometimes I have had issues trying to figure out which php.ini file the system is using.
WAMP is just as secure as any other server as long as you know how to do so, is provides a UI layer which cost CPU time but like I said if you are only serving small web sites/apps than this should be just fine.
My other recommendation is to install it on a Server (Windows 2008 RS or 20012) Windows servers are more reliable and powerful than the Windows User version. Just remember to turn off IIS and any other roles not used by the Windows Server.
Make sure you your WAMP folder backed up regularly!
Good luck
I haven't found one yet. I guess the speed won't be as good as a 'pure' setup, but it sounds like that isn't an issue.
I run an epos web app for a photo studio no problem at all!
WAMP usually stands for Windows, Apache, Mysql, PHP or whatever your particular choice for P is. It describes a stack meant for specifically for deploying/developing web applications and is a rough equivalent to LAMP. Most things that would be considered desktop applications wouldn't use a webserver and more than likely would not be written in PHP.
The issue is not so much one of downsides as it is Apples and Oranges: Desktop applications are usually built with a less web centric stack.
Actually i used with wamp for many purposes; I used it with VB.NET apps, PHP, etc...but I think if you want to use it for deployment, you should start by configuring it to do so.
For example, for PHP deactivation errors display in php.ini, start listening on all allow all in httpd.conf, activating safe mode, setting a password for MySQL; and many other options that have to be configured.
I personally prefer because it is a quick and lightweight tool.
I am having a desktop application which having a UI interface made in Qt linked with a library which is doing all the calculation stuff. Values from UI is taken and pass to the API's in the DLL to get the output which is shown on Screen.
Now i want to do the same thing by transferring my application UI to a web page so that people can access the tool from anywhere without any installation process.
I want to retain my c++ DLL code so i don't have to do a lot of work. I am thinking of just converting this DLL to a C++ server by any communication Process(Sockets). I want to host this application on my company's website. (We have to make the website also so we are open to any set of tools).
I want to know what will be the best set of tools to do this stuff. Also there will be lot of data exchange between the webpage and server so the wholething should be optimized also. I goggled a bit and find stuff like silverlight and ASP.NET, But i am still not very clear which option will be more suitable.
I am a c++ programmer with no web application development experience. I am open to learn any new technology.
Thanks
Why not use Qt on the web directly? There are several projects like this one: http://qtwui.sourceforge.net/
There is a netscape plugin that will host a QT application and an ActiveX control wrapper on the QT website. You could use one of those to wrap your application. Note that this approach would require the user (or their administrator) to download and install the plugin.
An alternative approach might be to run your application through a remote desktop such as XVNC, NX or an RDP based layer. IIRC browser based remote desktop clients are available for most such protocols.
A few options:
pick a messaging/queue implementation (like http://www.zeromq.org/) and provide a service
implement a Windows Web Service if you want to be more enterprise friendly: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/ee335693.aspx
I would not expose the implementation on the internet. Enough to have a simple buffer overflow and the machine can be taken over quickly. Adding a layer between the app and the web provides an easy way to validate input, access, stats ...
You should be able to use your DLL from an wt or cppcms application. Then you do not have to learn something new and can just use C++.
The way I'm currently doing this is with Boost.Python + django
