How do I connect to Homestead with multiple sites on a mobile device?
I am working on a website in Laravel that I am running on Homestead 0.2.0 and I want to try and connect to it using my phone and tablet so that I can test the website on those devices.
So, I have searched around trying to figure out how to do this. However, I cannot find articles that account for multiple sites.
I read somewhere that some routers do not allow WiFi-connected devices to connect to directly connected devices.
My sites are displayed like this:
sites:
- map: app1.local
to: /home/vagrant/projects/app1/public
- map: app2.local
to: /home/vagrant/projects/app2/public
- map: app3.local
to: /home/vagrant/projects/app3/public
How can I proceed?

Decision
Add an entry 192.168.10.10
for the app you want to test on your phone in the Homestead.yaml file and revisit the Homestead machine. Then download ipaddress:8000
to your phone
Description
Climb up to the last Homestead which displays * .app at 192.168.10.10
Then your file hosts
has the following entries:
192.168.10.10 app1.app app2.app app3.app
Let's say your developing computer is using IP 192.168.0.102
.
You can view your phone on
192.168.0.102:8000
for loading / testing app1.app
(alphabetical first)
To check app3.app
Modify the Homestead.yaml file from:
map: app3.app
to: /home/vagrant/projects/app3/public
in
map: app3.app
to: /home/vagrant/projects/app3/public
map: 192.168.10.10
to: /home/vagrant/projects/app3/public
Just change the entry and version of the Homestead machine to test another app on your phone.
