Very cool demo - there was enough in the video that I got it without feeling like you glossed over much, nor did you go too slow - pretty good pace for this type of service and audience.
Thanks! Yep, the local connection will tunnel through an HTTPS connect, so it should work from behind aggressive NATs.
The goal of the desktop app is cross-platform. In its current form it's a cobbled together OSX app that shells out, but moving it to Java (or an easier-to-port language) soon.
Hey HN, op here. Wiretap is a weekend project of mine I've been hacking on for a few months.
It's like your browser's Network Tab, but for server-side and mobile apps. Technically, it's a hosted reverse proxy / debugger that's really easy to setup.
Looking for beta testers as well as feedback from HN on the demo and landing page content. Thanks for your help and input!
