In English
Version 1.1.8

Anvil overview

Anvil is a beautiful menubar app for managing local websites.

Features:
  • Serve up static sites and Rack apps with simple URLs and zero configuration.
  • Anvil takes your site and serves it up locally with a .dev URL
  • No need to change system level configuration files or hack around in the Terminal, Anvil just does the right thing.
  • Choose the root folder for your site. Anvil works with any static HTML content or anything using Rack such as Ruby on Rails.
  • Anvil will give you a .dev domain name that will work locally in any browser. If your site is a Rack app it can also be restarted.
  • With built-in support for xip.io this domain can also be accessed from any device connected to your local network.

Note: While the software is classified as free, it is actually donationware. Please consider making a donation to help support development.
