Hi guys, I am currently developing a web app and a mobile app with pretty much the same guts. As we all know, entering ''rails s'' will allow me to pull the site up in my local browser at ''localhost:3000''. Is there anyway I can access this from my mobile phone so that I can see how it looks before sending it to a public host? Currently I''m deploying to Heroku to access the mobile site....which makes for tedious back and forth.

You can also make your site "live" on the web with a bit of router port-forwarding, and point your mobile at the correct IP/port. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Have a look at http://pow.cx from 37 Signals. If you are using your local WiFi network on both your computer and your phone, it should Just Work™.
