- candiddevmike 4y agoGet a Mac Mini, stick it in a closet and VNC into it, that's what I do.
- duxup 4y agoYeah I would think a Mini would be a better use case than a whole laptop.
- xfalcox 4y agoThen you emulate iOS on it to debug iOS Safari? Is it fast enough?
- candiddevmike 4y agoYea, it works well and is plenty fast on a LAN (remote may be laggy). Some things you can't test using emulators, namely App Store stuff I believe, and you need to screw with the resolution/scaling so you can read the text. I threw a GitHub runner on mine so I can do iOS builds from it.

- agrippanux 4y agoIf you are needing it for web dev, the Inspect browser on iOS works great for that purpose. It is annoying you have to pay $10 for something that should be built in.
- xfalcox 4y agoIs that a paid extension?
- liminalsunset 4y agoThere is also one called literally "Web Inspector" from "And a Dinosaur" or something which I believe is free and a Safari extension which pops up devtools on my iPhone
