Ive seen some apps where you can open your computers web-browser, type in the local IP address to the android device, and access a homepage that hosts from the device.
An example is this app: Finger Timer - play.google.com
Does anyone know how this is done? Does Google have an API for this, or do you have any examples that I can start with? Im not a professional developer, so I prefer to keep it simple (few technologies).
What I had in mind was something like this:
- Create a HTML or PHP page on my device
- Feed it with some information from my app somehow
- Host that page, so it can be accessed from any web-browser on any device on a local network.
