Edge browser on raspberry pi? - raspberry-pi

Is it possible to get the Edge browser running on the raspberry pi 2?
I've seen that in some areas the edge browser greatly outperforms Chrome (dom manipulation/css transitions), and I am creating a public display "art project".

The Microsoft Edge browser app is not included on Windows 10 IoT core that runs on the Raspberry Pi 2. However the same web platform behind MS Edge is available on the RP 2 in UWP apps. If you have a website you can take advantage of it through a Hosted Web App or the WebView control.
The steps to deploy an app are listed here. Check out this blog that covers the entire process of deploying on the Pi 2 through VS 2015. You are able to do this through the free community version.
This video covers how to make a Hosted Web App. A fun project and demo app to deploy is here: https://github.com/MicrosoftEdge/JSBrowser. It's a tutorial JavaScript app browser built using the WebView control that is able to run on the Pi 2.

Android apps worked in usb debugging but not in android emulator (white screen)

I run "ionic cordova run android" using visual studio code.. but the apps shows white screen in the emulator.. it display properly if using USB debugging.. the device also display properly if install using the apk.. the reason why I want to use emulator because I want to debug "http://10.0.2.2".. this is my emulator setting..
Emulator setting
Things that I have done is as per below
Choose ANGLE (D3D11) for OpenGL ES Renderer at the emulator advance setting
Choose Software - GLES 2.0 graphic for the Emulated Performance during create emulator
Try both R and Q for the system image during create the virtual device
Update the SDK based on the system image set at the emulator
System image selection
Issue
I compile the source code at different laptop (Laptop A) and it manage to display error at the web console using google inspect
it display "newtrustedfunctionforjit fn.bind is not a function"..
Founding
the issue is related to the chrome version 83 and the browser need an upgrade to solve the issue
The emulator is not using a browser (it using web view) hence I cannot update the google version
Solution
download new skin for newer android model into laptop A
download same skin on the laptop B (the laptop that I initially come with this post)
Below is the explanation from GitHub for angular
Explanation about the chrome issue
Below is my new System Image
Release Name S
API Level 31
ABI x86_64

Run AWS Device Farm Built in Explorer test on a responsive web app

We are building a responsive Web App. As it is responsive it has no .apk and .ipa files.
Can I use the AWS Device Farm Built in Explorer tests for my responsive Web App?
If Yes, please let me know how to configure it thru AWS Device Farm
Thanks

I don't believe so. The built-in explorer tests do a depth first search of the views in an Android app. Because we don't have an app and we're testing a website
, this option shouldn't be available to us. We haft to choose from the appium java/python client whilst using Device Farm.

Debugging a website on iPhone Safari

I have a website that loads perfectly on various browsers on Windows Laptop, Android and Fire OS. The same site refuses to load on a Safari on an iPhone.
It is an angular application. While I see the index.html load, the angular does not load. I need to debug to figure out what is happening. I only have a Windows 10 laptop. How can I debug the website running on Safari on an iPhone from my Windows 10 laptop?
If you only have a windows laptop, you will need an online service like browserstack. There is no way around this. Physical Iphones can only be debugged with Safari, running on physical Mac desktops or laptops. Browserstack is a subscription service, but it will be a lot cheaper than buying the hardware.

Building and debugging websites and web applications for mobile devices can be a hassle. On the desktop we have powerful debugging tools; most browsers have a web inspector of some kind. But we don’t have those tools for devices like the iPhone and iPad … that is, until now!

Create Android Wear Emulator Without Google Play Services

I'm using Android Studio 2.3.3 and I need to test my app on an emulator without Google Play Services. I know that it was pretty easy to create one using the old device manager (as described in this question), but I can't figure out how to do it with the new one.
The SDK Manager tells me that the system images that I want/need (API level 25) are installed:
Android Wear Intel x86 Atom System Image
Google APIs Intel x86 Atom System Image
At the "Select a system image" step for my new virtual device, only images with the Google APIs are presented under the "Recommended" tab. I've checked "x86 Images" and "Other Images" but no options without Google Play Services are to be found anywhere. I've also looked through all the settings options available at the "Verify Configuration" step without finding anything useful.
Does anyone know how to do this, or is it perhaps in fact no longer possible?

Missing platform support?

I want to connect an existing PhoneGap application to a newly created mobile service in Azure, but in the dashboard for the service I'm only presented with these three choices for the "Choose A Platform" option:
Windows Store
Windows Phone 8
iOS
Where is Android, HTML/JavaScript, Xamarin and the new PhoneGap option?
I take that you created a new mobile service using the new .NET backend. For now, the quickstart (starter) projects for that platform are only available in the four versions you see there (WinStore C#, WinStore JS, WinPhone 8 C#, iOS Objective-C), and others will be added soon.
However, the backend still supports other platforms (HTML/JS, PhoneGap, Android, Xamarin), it's just that we don't have the starter projects for those in the portal yet. You can take one of the supported ones, download the server project, and create the client project to talk to it.
Again, all supported platforms will get their quickstart projects added soon.
