But showing error as site cant be reach on outside devices.
Please help me.
Do i need to do port forwarding??? If yes then how can i do it on mobile?

.
Pc OS : windows 10.
I have enabled IIS using windows feature
Is it necessary to install windows server? To be able to publish page to outside user?
It is unnecessary to install windows server to host websites. IIS also works in Windows Client OS.
If your mobile could access the website correctly, there are might be something wrong with network connectivity causing the failure of accessing the webpage from other PC. We should ensure that the other PC is in the same network with the webserver(your laptop), just like the network of your mobile.
I advise other PC to join the mobile hotspot too. Following shutting the firewall and access the website by using the IP address again.
Considering the Ping tool to troubleshoot the network issue.

I tried of connecting http://localhost:3000 through my local ip address like http://mylocalipaddress:3000, but still the local site is not working for mobiles and tablets.
Is there any way to connect to localhost in mobiles and tablets in browser stack?
The prerequisite for accessing a localhost website at BrowserStack is to setup Local Testing, which can be set up by download their local desktop application from here: https://www.browserstack.com/question/785
Once set up, you should see a green dot next to 'Local Testing' on their floating toolbar and you should be able to access your localhost website on the remote machines/devices.
I would suggest reaching out to their support team at support#browserstack.com if you continue to face any issues.
I want to test a publicly available web application on a particular set of browser and OS (say, Firefox and Mac); the infrastructure team has provisioned for me a remote VM with these requirements.
The help I need from the community is that how can I access that remote Firefox instance from my local, say, Chrome browser instance.I want to launch the web application from remote Firefox's address bar. I don't want to have full access of the remote VM something which a solution like TeamViewer provides; just that remote browser.
I looked around for solutions and WebRTC cameup; however, according to my understanding I would only be able to view(read-only) whats going on in the remote browser, but I also need control on the remote browser so that I can launch web app from it, click a few buttons on the web app here and there etc.
Let me know if I have missed on any information, I would be more than happy for provide.
I have developed a web application in Oracle APEX, which I have thoroughly tested and it is running fine on my home PC. I also have bought a domain name. Now I want to know how can I connect that domain name to my home computer, so that anyone on internet can see my site ?
For the time being, just forget about the domain name. I just want to know how can I connect to my home server from internet using just the IP address (no domain required) of my computer? if anyone can reach my computer, we will have access to my web server/site.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks in advance.
These two links will help you get started. Its hard, but is possible. I don't know if the time is worth the couple bucks for a domain and all the support that comes with it.

I simply want to OPEN a program in my pc from a web page. For example, I am out and I take my smartphone, I go to the web page and then I click in a button and in my pc (at home, connected to internet) the program starts. How can I do that?
I tried: Open File
but the browsers (Firefox, Internet Explorer) try to download this file and not open.
Web browsers are incapable of running files on a remote machine, purely out of security reasons, because it could obviously do serious harm. This is only doable if you try to run a file on the machine you are using to visit the website with. There are applications available that can open files on or from a remote machine, but they tend to use a TCP or UDP connection to transfer the data, instead of an HTTP connection.
The best way to go about this, is to install a server application on your PC, and then connect to the PC with a client application on your smartphone.
Just search google for Remote control smartphone pc, or something similar.
You cannot do this using a web page. You must use a VNC. There are many open source versions with mobile client apps.

Try to use the IIS to map your internal server outside.
