Please port Live CSS Editor to Safari iOS
Creating mobile versions of websites is difficult without a live preview. Live CSS Editor would be of great help in that. Unfortunately there are many browsers supported by Live CSS Editor, but there is no version of Live CSS Editor running on Safari iOS. Please port Live CSS Editor to Safari iOS as a browser extension in the app store. Thank you.
@Emasoft We do intend to create and maintain this extension for extension stores of all popular browsers. Our past experience with Chrome's extension store has been better compared to others like Firefox, Opera and the (old) Edge browsers. We haven't yet attempted it for Safari browser.
We are still working on improving the extension and the use-cases it supports, but, updates to it are still not up to the speed due to reasons like the ones mentioned in https://github.com/webextensions/live-css-editor/issues/135#issuecomment-1732235499
To understand a bit more about your use case, can you provide the answers to the following:
- Which particular version of Operating System do you intend to use it in ?
- Which particular version of the browser do you intend to use it in ?
- What is the approximate size of the screen in which you intend to use your browser where this tool is supposed to run ?
- Are you primarily looking for using it in development environment or production environment ?
- Can you provide link to any of the browser extensions from the mentioned extension store which might be doing anything remotely close to this extension ?
- Which kind of inputs would your screen support ? Touchscreen only / mouse only / touchscreen and mouse both ?
Answers to these questions might help in figuring out the expected solution of publishing the extension or a potential workaround, eg: an embeddable version of the editor which can be directly loaded from a script (like: how https://github.com/mrdoob/stats.js can be embedded / loaded) or alternatively, a simple script to seamlessly refresh the loaded CSS in the page.
