Baguette 0.1.69 Released: Control Real iOS Simulator with Browser Cursor & Mac Keyboard

Baguette 0.1.69 Released

What you're watching: a browser cursor and the Mac keyboard driving an iOS simulator. Real iOS recognizers fire on every step.

  1. Click into the screen, type from the Mac keyboard — keystrokes forward to the focused app
  2. Pull from top-left → Lock Screen drops down
  3. Drag from the bottom → unlock, or Home / App Switcher in an app. iOS animates the multitasking card live as the cursor moves.
  4. Pull from top-right → Notification Center
  5. One click in the toolbar → device rotates
  6. App Switcher button → 2 home presses or just Switcher button

No Xcode. No Simulator.app. Browser cursor + Mac keyboard, straight into iOS.
