Feature Request: Local UI Preview for actor.json and dataset.json in DevelopmentΒ #751

@thenetaji

Description

@thenetaji

Currently, when developing an Apify actor, the UI defined in actor.json can only be seen after deployment. This creates a slow development cycle, as any changes require pushing updates and waiting for deployment.

It would be extremely helpful to have a way to preview the actor.json UI locally before deployment. This could be achieved via:

A local development server that renders the actor.json form
A CLI command to preview the UI
Integration with the Apify Console to allow real-time previewing..
