I've developed a website in my pc and the layout is good in laptop
But i want to see its mobile phone accessing layout ,before hosting.
Please help me in this. Thanks.
You can use developer tootks that are already built in web browsers.
https://developers.google.com/web/tools/chrome-devtools/device-mode/

Also if you realy want it to test on actual mobile create wireless connection using hotspot betwen mobile and laptop. Now your PC and mobile will get private IP addresses for this wireless connection.
Check you PC ip address for this connection and configure your webserver to listen on that IP address.
Now you can access your website on mobile with that IP as url and you can check your website layout.
You can Try Google Chrome,
Open Developer Tools
Select Toggle Device Toolbar
Select the device you like to simulate from the toolbar.
Are you running a webserver locally or just editing HTML files and viewing them in your browser?
If you are just opening HTML files in your browser then run a local web server on your computer like http-server.
https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-server
If you are running a web server locally then your phone should be able to hit the same test url if you are on the same network.

I am building an ASP.NET MVC 5 application and I run the server locally and it works fine, but I can't seem to connect to it from an external device.
The URL is localhost:60884 . I navigate with my phone to <internal_IP_address>:60884 and I get a ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT error.
I have disabled the firewall and I have tried to connect the PC on my phone's WiFi HotSpot, but no success.
Can someone tell me how to solve this?
You should be able to do this by setting it up in project properties. In Visual Studio if you go into the Web tab on the right, there'll be a Start URL you can choose
Whatever address you put in there you should be able to navigate to on your phone, provided you're on the same network. You are likely getting the timeout error because your device can't connect to the server's address at all.
Hope that helps!
I am running a Rails website on my Windows 8 computer's localhost. I want to try to run the website on my Android tablet. According to this top answer, to access the exact port from another device I must open the localhost port on my computer by adding an inbound rule to my firewall. I'm a beginner and I don't understand how to do this. Could somebody please go over this for me? Thank you.
I am developing a website on localhost wamp using Wordpress. Today when I tried to open my wordpress account it was displaying an error "This webpage is not available ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED",also I am not able to see any of my webpages.
I tried using IP address instead and tried to open on other browser like firefox,IE also (initially, I was working on chrome) but nothing worked.
Can anyone please suggest some solution to this??
Skype reserves port 80 for its incoming connection which conflicts with WAMP, so simply configure Skype to use another port by doing the following:
In Skype go to Tools|Options|Advanced|Connection uncheck the option --> Use port 80 and 443 as alternatives for incoming connections, that's it
For this change to take effect restart Skype and Restart all services on WAMP by doing the following:
Left-click WAMP tray icon > Restart All Services"
Now Wamp and Skype can co-exist together, hope this solves your problem!!
Have a look at this post:WAMP Server not working
I am wondering if there's a way to preview my asp.net localhost-website as it would look on another device, such as a mobile phone or pad. I want to do this on my computer, like this https://themes.shopify.com/themes/brooklyn/styles/brooklyn/preview.
I read this thread Viewing localhost website from mobile device but I want to do it directly on my PC.
I recommend BrowserStack or GhostLab
https://www.browserstack.com/
https://responsivedesign.is/resources/testing/ghostlab
Both Easy to configure and setup.
Otherwise if you only want to display in different solutions for different devices there is

I've a guide for your question.
Connect your wifi in mobile.
Open browser.
Enter your localhost project system IP address with colan and add web project folder name. for example, you system IP is 192.168.1.100 and web project directory name is demo, then navigate 192.168.1.100:demo on mobile browser address bar.
you can able to preview your web project in smartphone or tablet.
Another simple method is Try to download opera emulator and test your localhost projects.

Here I posted step by step instruction clearly. I hope it'll work for you./
I have a web apllication that I want to test on other machines such as smartphones,tablets etc.How can I make changes to the code on my computer and see the build on other devices?
If you can hook the machines into a local area network that is the same as your web server, then that is the easiest solution. For example, if they can share the same Wifi connection then it may be possible for your tablet or smartphone to access your web server through its local IP.
On the other hand, if you don't want to have that network dependency, you'll need a public IP that will work for the tablets, smartphones, etc. to see the site.
what OS/IIS version are you running? In any case point the "Default Web Site" to the root of your web project and make sure it's bound to port 80. You should be able to access it by "http://[machinename]" or "http://[ipaddress]". Make sure your devices are connected to your LAN. I've noticed that Android will not resolve the machine name but ip address should work.
From this support article.
Log on to the Web server computer as an administrator.
Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
Double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Internet Services Manager.
Right-click the Web site that you want to configure in the left pane, and then click properties.
Click the Web site tab.
Type a description for the Web site in the Description box.
Type the Internet Protocol (IP) address to use for the Web site or leave the All (Unassigned) default setting.
Modify the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) port as appropriate.
Click the Home Directory tab.
To use a folder on the local computer, click A directory on this computer, and then click Browse to locate the folder that you want to use (your asp.net web site).
Click Read to grant read access to the folder (required).
Click OK to accept the Web site properties.
Then you can navigate it by your computer name or IP address. This is assuming the devices you want to use are on the same domain (network).
For instance it could be http://127.0.0.1/YourSiteName to get to the site on your local machine. You can figure out your machine's IP address by running ipconfig from the command prompt.
