Description

Code App is a MIT-licensed desktop-class code editor for iPadOS with built-in Node.js, Python, C, C++, PHP and Java runtime.
We built it because there is nothing else on the App Store provides all these features in one app:
* A robust, high-performance text editor (Monaco Editor from Visual Studio Code)
* Autocomplete, static code analysis and other language features for Python & Java
* First class local file system support
* Extensive local language support
* SSH / FTP remote connection support (Files and terminal)
* Embedded emulated terminal
* Git Version Control
* Package manager support (pip and npm)
* Markdown, themes, server-side snippet execution and more

Lost my workspace

I used this successfully for a week, then for no apparent reason lost access to my workspaces through the app, despite trying repeatedly "Close Workspace" and then attempting to reopen them again by selecting the folders, hard resetting the phone, removing the app from memory, etc. This is a tiny bit of a dealbreaker, since I can't actually use my projects!
Prior to that, my main complaint was a frustrating tendency of the cursor in Runestone to act like a magnet being repelled by the specific place in the text I wanted it to go, and instead flying off to the sides. Very odd behaviour.

Almost perfect but…

Please include a “Save” button or shortcut!
This is almost the perfect app for coding on iOS, but you can only save a file by ‘closing’ the keyboard - which is neither foolproof, 1st-time user friendly nor an intuitive method of saving a file. It also does not give the user the control they expect of such a simple and essential task.
I can’t think of any time in the past where I’ve ever saved my files by closing the keyboard. Even if you keep the current autosave feature as a fallback (many other programs do this by having simple timer, eg save every 5 mins), why not also include a regular ‘save’ button as well? Does giving the user the ability to be in control take away from your current design methodology? It really baffles me.
My critique here comes from now having had multiple bad experiences just trying to get my simple js file to actually ‘save’ so that it is updated on my icloud drive.
This issue of mine would of course immediately be solved by having a button or shortcut that allows me to save the file at will.
Please consider this a feature request and not a negative review because you really have made a wonderful app otherwise.
Cheers,

#1 code app on IPad

Initially set 1/5 for unresponsive physical keyboard. Seeing they’re onto it, giving 5 stars as no other complaints. Using it to lean Python.

More features

This code app is great to use on iPad. It would be much better to open and upload files and folders via GitHub.

Has potential but missing key features

I was pretty excited to come across this application. I've been wanting and looking for native VS Code application for iPadOS. This application has potential, but is currently missing what I would consider some key features for my workflow needs: 1. Previewing of Asciidoc markdown files 2. Cloning repos using SSH Keys (current work in progress as noted on Github project repo). 3. Prompting to save changes when closing a file if changes have been made. 4. Support for VS Code type extensions/marketplace. 5. Visual indication under "Source Control" to show the repo has not yet been pushed (work-around: up arrow with number of commits at bottom of screen). 6. Specifying the folder name when cloning (work-around is to clone, then rename; but don't use spaces as this seems to breaks it's Git client)

Unbelievable.

One of the best feelings to finally find such a great code compiler on mobile devices. Often I am without my computer which makes it horrible to code on IOS, using online text editors or simply just using the notes app. However, this just changed the whole experience, it creates much more power on the mobile devices. Really appreciate the amazing work.

Great app!

Wow, great app, can’t believe you’re the same age as I am. I wonder if there’s functionalities out there to push and pull to Github servers for code maintainability across various devices?
