       | It's so cool seeing this on the HN homepage! Hey folks, I'm the
       | solo creator of Polypane, the web browser for developers.
       | 
       | This latest release has a new feature called Portal, that lets
       | you share your localhost with any device (local network or
       | through a randomly generated public URL).
       | 
       | That's cool but what's new compared to other similar tools is
       | that anything you do in Polypane, like scrolling, clicking and
       | typing, but also our layout debugging and any editing you do in
       | the Polypane devtools also happens in all of the connected
       | browsers, so you can quickly test fixes across rendering engines,
       | or share your localhost with a team mate and suggest changes on
       | the fly.
       | 
       | Hope you all check it out :)

         | Hi Killan, thanks for making this software. I remember in the
         | past I use to sub, but found it too expensive. However with
         | this ever increasing feature list and how those features will
         | solve several pain points I face daily, I'll be resubbing
         | today. Portal looks great and that's the final feature that has
         | won me over.

           | That's great, thanks. I work hard to provide features for any
           | issue people bump into. Glad this one convinced you to try it
           | again!

       | Already tried this and it works so well. Really great being able
       | to send my dev server to my phone through Polypane like this.
       | Makes a super useful tool even more useful.

       | If you just want to make localhost available on your phone,
       | tablet, etc, apparently Tailscale will do that?
       | 
       | Looks like there are a lot of other features in this software,
       | though.
