There's no official Glass Emulator yet.

I overcame this via installing Glass APKs into Nexus 7 tablet.

It worked perfectly:

  • I can control it in http://google.com/myglass
  • Mirror API works flawlessly.
  • GDK Sneak Peak doesn't work.

There isn't an out the box emulator.

You can use the playground to preview your cards, this will show you how your card will be laid out depending on what attributes you provide in your timeline post object. On the right. Just switch that view on the right to HTML if you want to provide a custom HTML template for your cards.
