+### Android: automatic `adb reverse`
+
+For Android HMR the CLI automatically runs `adb reverse tcp:<port> tcp:<port>`
+for the session's dev-server port (using the SDK-resolved adb, scoped to the
+deploy target, after the device is ready) so the device reaches the dev server
+through the ADB tunnel at `127.0.0.1:<port>`. Relevant opt-outs:
+
+- `NS_HMR_NO_ADB_REVERSE=1` — skip the tunnel and use `10.0.2.2`.
+- `NS_HMR_PREFER_LAN_HOST=1` — physical device over Wi-Fi; emit the host's LAN IP.
+- `NS_HMR_HOST=<host[:port]>` — point the device at an explicit origin (CI / tunnels).
+
+## Custom HMR sessions
+
+The CLI picks the dev-server settings for each session on its own:
+
+- **Port** — the first free port at or above `NS_HMR_PORT` (default `5173`),
+  the same way `vite` moves off a busy port. Whatever it picks is baked into
+  the device URLs, bound by the dev server and (on Android) tunnelled with
+  `adb reverse`, so all three always agree.
+- **Staging directory** — `.ns-vite-build/<platform>`, so iOS and Android
+  builds never overwrite each other's output.
+
+Both can still be pinned explicitly:
+
+| Environment variable | Purpose | Default |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `NS_HMR_PORT` | Preferred Vite dev-server port; the CLI moves to the next free port when it is taken | `5173` |
+| `NS_HMR_STRICT_PORT` | Fail instead of moving when `NS_HMR_PORT` is taken (Vite's `strictPort`) — for tunnels / CI that forward a fixed port | unset |
+| `NS_VITE_DIST_DIR` | Project-relative staging directory used for Vite output before the NativeScript CLI copies it into the platform app | `.ns-vite-build/<platform>` |
+
+The environment settings only need to be visible to the `ns` process — the CLI
+propagates them (and the values it picks) to the dev server it spawns.
+
+### Running two platforms at once
+
+Start both; nothing to configure:
+
+```bash
+# Terminal 1
+ns debug ios       # dev server on 5173
+
+# Terminal 2
+ns debug android   # 5173 is busy → dev server on 5174
+```
+
+Each session gets its own port and staging directory. Older CLIs that don't
+pick ports need them set by hand per terminal:
+
+```bash
+# Terminal 1: iOS
+NS_HMR_PORT=5173 NS_VITE_DIST_DIR=.ns-vite-build/ios ns debug ios
+
+# Terminal 2: Android
+NS_HMR_PORT=5174 NS_VITE_DIST_DIR=.ns-vite-build/android ns debug android
+```
+
+The inline environment syntax above is for POSIX shells; use the equivalent
+assignment on Windows.
+
+### Advanced: running `vite serve` yourself
+
+The dev server is just `vite serve -- --env.<platform> --env.hmr`. You can run
+it standalone for diagnostics, but do **not** run it alongside `ns run`/`ns debug`
+for the same platform — both would try to bind the same port. CLI-managed is the
+supported default.
+

+1) Create `vite.config.mts` (the `.mts` extension keeps the config ESM without setting `"type": "module"` in the app's package.json, avoiding Vite's `configLoader: 'native'` warning):
