Description

@chrisfusillo

Summary:

As a developer, it would be beneficial to enable tethering between iOS and macOS to allow inspection of applications running inside the Core Mobile browser using Safari’s Developer Console. This feature would significantly improve the debugging process for client-side code within Core Mobile.

Use Case:

When testing or debugging web applications within Core Mobile, the ability to inspect client-side code is crucial for diagnosing issues, inspecting network requests, viewing console logs, and more. Tethering an iOS device to macOS would allow developers to use Safari Developer Tools to inspect and debug web applications in real time.

Proposed Solution:

  1. Implement support for tethering iOS devices running Core Mobile to macOS, enabling Safari Developer Tools to inspect the web content.
  2. Reference and align the functionality with Apple’s official documentation on enabling web content inspection in iOS applications: Enabling Inspecting Content in Your Apps.

Benefits:

  1. Enhanced debugging and inspection of client-side code running in Core Mobile.
  2. Streamlined development workflow, with the ability to utilize Safari’s Developer Console for network requests, JavaScript errors, and more.
  3. Better troubleshooting for issues related to the browser environment in Core Mobile.
