Seconded. I've been working on a webapp that's meant to work on iOS and I haven't figured out any way to debug it from my Linux machine, even with my phone being jailbroken.
Side note, if you just want to test with WebKit: GNOME Web (sudo apt install epiphany) uses WebKit internally. It doesn't have a responsive design mode or even a way to change the user agent, but it does have the exact same rendering and JS engine.
:wave Kenneth here. Linux support is on the roadmap, and can be supported via https://libimobiledevice.org/ but not all functionality might be possible, as libimobiledevice isn't 100% on pair with Apple's own driver that's provided via iTunes on MacOS and Windows.
Would love to get some help testing this as I'm not a Linux user myself. Shoot me an email at kenneth@auchenberg.dk if you are interested!
I was trying to figure out how it's different from inspecting from within Safari on a Mac, but I don't see the answer there. I just tried and it works fine over Wi-Fi as well. Maybe Windows support?
I could see how this is useful. I indeed had to buy a Mac for the not so niche use case of web testing in iOS. Interestingly it’s so easy to debug chrome on iOS by just heading to chrome://inspect over http

I use https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/inspect-browser/id1203594958 but would like a more fully featured environment. Not sure if anyone has found a better developer browser for iPad?

Which is it? Also minor typo, "off" should be "of".
But looks great, congrats on launching. Excited to try it out!
