Live Preview lets you run and view your Woz app locally as you build, so you can see changes instantly in a browser or simulator. Follow the steps below to get set up.

​
Step 1: Open Your Project in Woz

  1. Go to withwoz.com and sign in.
  2. Navigate to the project you want to preview.

​
Step 2: Open Dev Tools

  1. Inside your project, open the Dev Tools menu.
  2. Connect your preferred editor:
    • Claude Code
    • Cursor
    • VS Code

​
Step 3: Copy the Live Preview Command

  1. In the Dev Tools menu, find “Add a live, app preview window.”
  2. Copy the full command sequence shown.

​
Step 4: Run the Command Locally

  1. Open a local terminal on your machine.
  2. Paste the copied command and press Enter.
  3. When prompted, enter the password provided in the Dev Tools menu.

​
Step 5: Choose How to View the Preview

Once the preview is running, you can choose how to view your app:
  • Press w to open the preview in a web browser
  • Press i to open the preview in an iOS simulator
Your app will now update live as changes are made.

​
You’re All Set

Live Preview is now running. Keep the terminal open while you work to continue seeing updates in real time. If you run into issues, double-check that:
  • You are running the command locally (not in a remote terminal)
  • The password was entered correctly
  • Your editor connection is active in Dev Tools
