Point 3: Previewing & Debugging

To preview the application UI and layout, use the Appeon Workspace Emulator () from the Appeon Developer toolbar.

To debug the application business logic, first ensure that the UFA report does not contain any unsupported features, or at least no unsupported features in the area of the application you are trying to debug. Then, launch the Appeon Debugger () from the Appeon Developer toolbar, which will load the Web version of your application in the IE Web browser.

The Appeon Debugger requires the Microsoft Script debugger to be installed on your system and that your Internet Explorer is version 9 or later. There are also special configurations you need to perform in the Appeon Developer and Internet Explorer. Please see Debugging Appeon Web Applications in Appeon Developer User Guide for more information about how to properly configure your environment for the Appeon Debugger.

Please note that Appeon Mobile does not contain a mobile-specific debugger, so we have included the Web debugger in lieu. While not exactly the same, it can still help to identify problems in the application business logic or areas that Appeon is having trouble converting.
