  • Awesome idea and UI, poor execution

    Great looking app. Constantly crashes upon load, no option to save files you’ve previously todos loaded from say Files on my iPad. Has to re-download files each time I try to open larger projects. Just needs a few things polished and would be amazing!
  • Does Not have input and output file

    This app needs file and output file for C++, Python, and several languages. There is a lack of tutorial of how to create an input and output file for specifically C++ and Python 3 and also several major computer languages. I use the fstream library and does not let me input and output. I expected more from this "desktop coding app"

    Developer Response

    Hi, thanks for the feedback. All local executing languages should support file input / output. Please send us the related source code or reproducible steps to support@thebaselab.com for us to provide more help.
  • Dream Come True

    This is a tool that I have been looking for the past couple years after coming across Pythonista. The language support and similarity to my desktop setup is very nice! It makes it easy to work on the go and just play around with projects. Either way, if you’re looking for a Text Editor similar to VSCode for your iPad and this is the solution.

    I wonder if plugin support will ever come? That’d be killer!

    Thank you and keep up the support!

  • Excellent App

    Since ~2013, I’ve used an iPad to develop on-the-go and in classrooms, and I’ve always been disappointed by the weak dev tools that were supported on the App Store.

    With this app supporting many of the VSCode shortcuts (specifically multicursor support), I’ve been quite impressed.

    The only thing I wish could be added is support for some of the instructions from the VSCode MetaGo / MetaJump extensions,

    Namely bookmarks & the search and jump functionality it supports.

  • It’s great

    I love that there’s an app for coding, but the one language I was looking for was c# and that’s not an available language on this app
  • Fantastic integration with Working Copy

    This seamless workflow is just so satisfying.
    I wish there could be remote container support.
  • Amazing! THE best coding app ever!

    This app is amazing, it has everything you would ever need to program on iOS. One thing I would love is more local compilers/interpreters, specifically a Ruby interpreter. Thanks!
  • Solidity Syntax Highlighting/Compiler

    Please add solidity syntax highlighting and compiler. Also, the vscode intellisense autocomplete would really make coding easier and faster with this app. I really hope to see these features including in upcoming updates. For now, I’ll rate it 4 stars.
  • This is pretty good

    This is pretty good, although I wish that I could run my programs, especially in java, with a hockey, like CMD+Enter
  • Very buggy

    Cloning repositories and pulling updates is a complete nightmare.
