I think I have a basic misunderstanding of how Browsersync works. Forgive my question. I have read the documentation and the issues on GitHub and here.
I do understand that it works on two levels:
The first level is when you change your code it automatically synchs the changes on all of the devices.
The second level is you perform a user action on one browser - then on the external IP Address it displays/broadcasts to all other devices on the same IP address.
I'm asking in regard to the second scenario - can you broadcast by proxy a site where you don't own the codebase?
I Have a simple HTML/JS/CSS example website integrated with Browsersync.
I created this as a concept to see if others could see the actions I was taking from my desktop.
The proof of concept works fine. Other people within my network using my Browsersync IP Address can see my actions as I make them.
Can you broadcast/proxy a site that you don't own and is not part of your codebase?
For example, if I wanted to broadcast www.stackoverflow.com so other people within my network could see the actions I was taking on my local Browsersync URL?
(We do have our own development site https: //somenewsite.com so I really just want to broadcast that site not a true outside site).
Or can I only use Browsersync to broadcast a page from within my own codebase?
I tried using the proxy attribute but I'm not sure it does what I think it does.
