Self-hosted iOS & Android simulator streaming for the whole team

Why this job: works in the areas we cover, but does not say which job it does

What it does

  • No mobile toolchain for QA users. teammates test from a browser without installing Xcode, Android Studio, or local simulator tooling.
  • Self-hosted by default. no third-party cloud and no external accounts; everything runs on hardware you already own.
  • Use your existing Mac setup. run agents on Macs that already have the iOS Simulator or Android emulator available.
  • API-first. REST endpoints and Personal Access Tokens support CI/CD and AI-agent workflows.
  • Browser streaming. iOS & Android at ~30 fps, no extra app on the device. Both stream H.264 through a 2-tier decoder (WebCodecs on secure contexts, WASM/tinyh264 on plain HTTP), which removes the media-element buffer from the decode path. R
