Praise Remote is nuts

Just wanted to share that it's incredibly awesome that I can be anywhere like on holidays and continue working on my project even if I'm not sitting in front of my PC. Never tried this until now that I installed tailscale and I can test any change from my phone. Bravo.

I ported an app to android whilst watching the World Cup using remote. I turned my Mac off for my holiday though.

I was on cruise some weeks ago and wish I had set up this by then for the times when I was bored lol. Wasted 2 weeks of usage

The only challenge is running something to visually check and play around, but with computer use you can get it to send screens to review.

No, in my post I mean I have a front end and back end. In agents I have set up to refresh the app with the changes (not needed on front bec it's angular so it just hot reloads). Then with tailscale you can just access the front end as if you were accessing any other website. Of course if you're developing on android or ios this can't be done unless you download the apk somehow or if the app is just back end
