Localhost2Phone Extension

Showcase or Test your Frontend or Backend code just by scanning a QR Code or copying the url and sharing it.

As a developer working under his Localhost server for testing frontend code on different screen becomes a tiresome process.I've encountered one issue that always wastes 2-5 minutes of my workflow.

Testing on each Screen is not easy for different devices like your device and we have to check manually.Instead of this workflow we could just share the QR Code and let the team know about the output easily without any hassel.

This is where Localhost2Phone comes into play just by sharing QR Code or URL.

Comments, bugs and suggestions are welcome.

Enjoy :)
