Steps
Install Odysseus on your Windows PC first. The phone only opens the workspace, so the PC setup must be finished and working before you continue.
Create a.bat file that starts Odysseus. Put it in the Odysseus folder and point it at the start command your setup uses.
Double-click the.bat file to launch Odysseus on the PC. Wait until the terminal or window shows the server is running and listening.
Leave Odysseus running on the PC. Do not close the window, or the phone will lose the connection.
On the PC, open Command Prompt and type ipconfig. Find the IPv4 address under your active adapter, something like 192.168.1.20.
On your phone, connect to the same Wi-Fi network as the PC. Mobile data will not reach a local address.
Open the phone browser and type the PC address with the Odysseus port, for example http://192.168.1.20:3000. Press go.
Wait for the Odysseus page to load, then use the workspace as normal. If it fails, check the port number and that the PC firewall allows the connection.
Tips and common mistakes
If the page will not load, allow the Odysseus port through Windows Firewall for private networks.
Set a static IP or DHCP reservation for the PC so the phone address does not change after a reboot.
Keep the phone and PC on the same band and router, since guest networks often block local devices.
Do not expose the local address to the internet unless you add authentication and HTTPS.
Questions
Do I need to install an app on my phone?
No. You only need a web browser. The Odysseus server runs on the PC and the phone connects to it over your local network.
Why does the page not open on my phone?
The most common causes are a wrong IP address, a missing port number, the PC firewall blocking the port, or the phone being on a different network.
Can I use this away from home?
Not with a local IP address. Remote access needs a secure tunnel or VPN, and you should add authentication before exposing it.
