Do you code on iPad? (lemm.ee)

Do you code on an iPad? Why or why not? If you do, what code editor do you use?

I don’t have a laptop I usually code on my desktop, but I work from home so I get tired of sitting in the same place for so long. I’ve been doing it on my iPad and it seems to be doable!

I tried a few free apps for ipadOS. Some were okay, some were not. I’m willing to pay but I don’t want to spend money randomly on apps I don’t like.

CodeSpaces on GitHub seems to be the best option so far, but it’s a pay as you go structure and not a singular cost.

I liked the UI of Runestone, but many critical features are locked behind a paywall.

Replit seemed decent too but it seems very cloud focused and I already use GitHub.

Koder* seems like it has the most free access features but UI wasn’t intuitive and I couldn’t figure out how to type in a file if I switched pages and came back to my original file.

I hear Textastic is pretty good but side it’s paid with no trial period, I didn’t try it yet. I wanted to get some feedback before I started paying for anything.

Let me know what you use. Share your tips with Lemmy!

Thanks! I hadn’t looked into this, but I think this would work, especially since mostly, I just want to write code from my living room or outside and not sit at my desk all day.

I have a keyboard attachment for my iPad so this would probably work perfectly.
