#Remote debugging USB-connected Android via Chrome

##Phone Setup

  • Requires a handset with modern Android (ala 4.X, etc)
  • settings => developer options => usb debug enable
  • phone => chrome => settings => developer tools => usb debug enable

##Desktop Setup - One Time Only

##Desktop Debug Session

  • desktop => cd ~/bin/android-sdk-macosx/platform-tools
  • desktop => terminal => adb forward tcp:9222 localabstract:chrome_devtools_remote
  • desktop => Chrome => http://localhost:9222
  • Now the desktop Chrome dev tools can reach out to what the handset sees

It's possible to download just the platform-tools (8mb) here: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools, without having to download the whole android studio.
