          Why aren’t you just hitting the mirror with a web browser? The browser will render the mirror more-or-less exactly as it will be displayed. You won’t be able to use any module with a peripheral, such as a microphone or IP camera. But for layout, fonts and the like it will speed things up immeasurably.

          Add your computer to the ipWhiteList and restart the mirror process. Point your browser at http://[mirror ip address]:8080

              for the ones who need to the same, here is how i updated my config file:

              var config = {
                      port: 8080,
                      address: "0.0.0.0",
                      ipWhitelist: [],
              

              Thx to both for your help
