weinre – Home Remote Debugger for Mobile Applications

August 29, 2011

weinre is Web Inspector Remote. Pronounced like the word “winery”. Or maybe like the word “weiner”. Who knows, really.

Interesting places:

GitHub: https://github.com/phonegap/weinre

Google Group: http://groups.google.com/group/weinre

weinre documentation: http://phonegap.github.com/weinre

Google Chrome Developer Tools: http://code.google.com/chrome/devtools/docs/overview.html

It’s a debugger for web pages, like FireBug (for FireFox) and Web Inspector (for WebKit-based browsers), except it’s designed to work remotely, and in particular, to allow you debug web pages on a mobile device such as a phone.
