Update: Dec 5 2017

Update: Jan 27
- Hi folks. I started charging for the app so fund more development effort. The free trial you can use indefinitely. But consider supporting future development by buying. And leaving any feedback. Thanks!

Update: Oct 3, version 0.0.6

This is beta quality software at the moment. It relies on "web-server-chrome" (https://github.com/kzahel/web-server-chrome) which it uses as a submodule.

Please let me know your experience by leaving feedback! I'll be sure to improve it.
