I'm building the mobile version of a website and I want a way to test it. The problem with a lot of free emulators is that they are for windows. I know I could run them in wine, just wondering if there are native GNU/Linux applications.

PS: I want to perform these tests locally, I'm not looking for online emulators.

Install Opera Mobile in Ubuntu (.deb)

it´s faster then the Android-emulators, so better for Web-apps dev.

enter image description here

Opera Labs have made installation in Ubuntu super easy:

  1. You download this .deb

  2. Double-click on it once download has completed

  3. Click on 'Install' in Ubuntu Software Center.

  4. Then open your ’Dash Home’ an wirte 'op'.
