I’m not sure I would want to try and pronounce the name of this open source project in mixed company. But next time you need to debug a website running within a mobile browser, you might want to whip out your weinre.
Rock Out With Your Weinre Out
The Weinre name is an acronym for WEb INspector REmote. And they give a couple of guesses at how to pronounce it. But other than that it does what it says on the label: It lets you use Chrome debug tools on a desktop to debug a live site running in a webkit browser on Android or iOS.
To use it, you run a small app on your computer, and then place some javacript on the page to be debugged and you’re in business.
Its not trivial to setup and use, but its a huge step up from the guess-upload-reload options alternative. Hopefully in future builds they will find a way to make it even easier to use, and hey maybe also change the name.
I suggest “Dachshund”.
