WorldWideWeb – Mobile

Kann keinen Server-Ordner auswählen. Somit nicht funktionsfähig = unbrauchbar, aber dafür 10€ abspecken wollen. Ich glaube euch pfeift das Hirn! Ab in die Tonne wo löschen drauf steht!

super nice http server to serve static files (and thus, websites) The cross device serving is insanely cool

Thanks for creating this free excellent local web server to test out javascript that I've created or downloaded from github. I'm a novice javascript programmer and user on my iPad and usually use the web preview function of Textastic to run my projects locally. However, the World Wide Web server app runs my project with even more screen space and most similar to the actual rendering seen when I'm connected to a website in the Safari browser. It is simple to use-- all I need to do is to choose the folder that contains my local webserver files (e.g. Textastic files or the standard files app on my iPad), tap on a button to start the browser, then one more button to actually open up a browser in full view. :-) :-) :-)

I needed to run a mini site of company documentation deployed as an HTML-based website offline and found that Safari for whatever reason Apple does not allow it to link and load local resources just like your desktop macOS would do with Safari while developing a site and testing pages locally from your own drive. To be more clear for those that did not have this experience yet even if you had a one page document as HTML with an external stylesheet this would not be loaded as called by the link in the source code of the page to the external style sheet simply in the same directories or folder on your iPad so this utility solves this problem being an Apple chose to make a problem. Side note: It appears they also have a desktop version of this web server utility that would also be great because Apple once again self-limited an awesome operating system and killed off the user selectable share option that used to turn on the Apache Web server underneath the pretty surface of that macOS. Apache is still on there but you need to know the procedure and how to edit the files to turn it on via the terminal. The desktop version of this app from what I can tell would save you from that annoyance.

Here’s what it feels like to drive out into the mountains with just an iPad and a Bluetooth keyboard, and to do some actual, real-life web development: it feels like freedom.

Def looking forward to tweaking my website from my iPad! But for some reason, Dropbox is grayed out in the Files folder picker. 🤔
