<![CDATA[MM emulator?]]>Hi there, it there any Magic-Mirror emulator that can simulate my developing MM-modules? I would prefer to develop the code on Windows-based before actually running it on the MagicMirror environment. Or, how you guys develop the modules if you are new to MM like me?

you don’t edit IN mm, you edit the files used, then launch mm.

you can do that in windows, as long as I don’t need access to any pi hardware.

install process
git clone like normal
cd MagicMirror
npm install
cd …\fonts
npm install
cd …\vendor
npm install
cd …
npm start

then you can double click edit files on your pi, start and stop mm from the ssh window

and use your browser to see the mm page ( w address:“0.0.0.0”, and ipWhitelist:[]
set in the pi mm config.js

it’s the best of both worlds

complex module will not works (sample any module with voice [assistant])

@Cr4z33 idea is really an alternative ;)

Note: Raspbian is a debian version made for RPI
