Using Handoff to quickly view your RapidWeaver site
· Nik
We’re incredibly excited about a new feature coming later this month in RapidWeaver 6.0.5: Preview via Handoff.
One of the lesser-known features of Handoff in OS X Yosemite is that in addition to app-to-app Handoff, apps can also broadcast a web address for continuity in Safari (we discovered this morning in the team Slack channels that the fine folks at Strava also do this, and it’s pretty sweet). Once RapidWeaver 6.0.5 has finished publishing your website address, and so long as RapidWeaver is still the active app, we use Handoff to broadcast your website address allowing you to quickly view the published site on your iPhone, iPad or any other Mac. It makes viewing your freshly-updated site as easy as swiping up on the iOS lockscreen!
RapidWeaver 6.0.5 is scheduled to launch this month, and if you’re eagerly awaiting the news about this feature and RapidWeaver update be sure to follow @realmacsoftware on Twitter!
