edge inspect, formerly adobe shadow, was developed as a way of quickly previewing a web design on mobile platforms without publishing the associated files to a server. it allows ios and android mobile devices to be paired to a computer, and each device will display the same site using its native render and presentation modes. rather than previewing a site optimised for mobile viewing on a desktop machine, edge inspect sends the file to paired devices, where it is rendered and displayed. code may be edited live, with changes being displayed on paired devices as they are made, and screenshots from all devices can be collected remotely from the computer that hosts the connection. it was released with the announcement of the edge suite.
