Hey HN, I wrote a script to bring DevTools (based on eruda) to Android Chrome. It works on any website, and you can access it by shaking your phone. It uses a local VPN tunnel to dynamically inject the script into a page. Installation is simple, takes around 10 minutes.<p>Some features include:<p>- Execute JavaScript on page<p>- Select an element on the page to view its properties<p>- Inspect incoming and outgoing network requests<p>Feel free to check out the demo!
By the way, I never got it why do Android version of the apps (e.g. Chrome) have to be so crippled (e.g. no extensions, no dev tools) and why is the actual Annroid OS not really meant for desktop/laptop computers. IMHO Android could make an excellent general-purpose OS if just some aspects (in the apps mostly) improved.
