Hello everyone 👋
We're a husband-wife duo who built everysize as part of easter weekend's Pioneer hackathon - the husband (@krishan711) is the engineer and wife (@krupali_patel) is the product manager.
We're building a responsive landing page builder and kept getting annoyed by having to review different layouts for different screen sizes. We made everysize to solve this problem.
We hope it will help other developers and designers to test their pages in various device sizes, in a simpler and less manual way. everysize lets you set up a tailored dashboard which you can leave open whilst you develop your reactive site and watch it reload everywhere in real time (if hot reloading is enabled). It's browser based which means there is no need to download anything. Since we use iframes you can even test pages with authentication without having to re-enter your credentials and the browser will keep you safe!
We'd love your feedback, and we'd appreciate if you can share this with anyone you know who may benefit from it :)

@krishan711 @krupali_patel Congrats to both of you for the launch.
Just got a quick question on how are you planning to handle web-sites which do not support iframe for security reasons. Also when I checked, you were recommending to try localhost, which might not be feasible for Linux servers which are hosted without GUI enabled.
Just curious me, as this highly useful and we need to ensure it reaches all audience irrespective of their environment. Just a thought :)

@krupali_patel @devaonbreaches Hey Devanand, great question! The simplest way would be to add a header allowing (only) everysize to see your page via iframe by adding a header to your server like:
X-Frame-Options: allow-from https://everysize-app.kibalabs.com
on nginx you can do it by:
server {
add_header X-Frame-Options "allow-from https://everysize-app.kibalabs.com";
...
}
(not sure how to do code snippets on PH, apparently its not mardown :(
@krupali_patel @krishan711 Perfect! This looks viable. Also I would suggest you can add this to the app when you detect iframe and give them an option. So it helps the developer to enable this and test their web-apps.
I liked the way you showed the config for nginx. Cheers.

This is so simple and easy to use. Like how it itself is responsive too!

@mattcrail Thanks for checking out everysize Matt 🙂 and thank you for sharing the checklist which really helped us in prep for the launch!
@krupali_patel glad it was useful 😊
I tried it with my own website and it's very cool! Congrats! It reminds me to this little tool (https://github.com/seek-oss/play...) very useful when coding but yours is for front-end users :)
