Godsend
A flexible and well-executed learning tool
My (constructive) comments:
- The text editor portion is a bit more “manual” than it could be… this sounds a bit petty, but it would speed things up greatly to have features like automatically adding closing parentheses/brackets when you type the opening one, especially since the brackets require either scrolling in the hotkeys area above the keyboard or diving into the symbol layers of the iPhone keyboard.
- In each exercise, the elements we are meant to fill in have actual underscore characters as the placeholder. This is a bit cumbersome because it requires us to delete the underscores first before we can type in the answer. It’s a little thing, but those add up after 10-20 exercises in one sitting — especially with my imprecise, uncoordinated fingers.
- I think it would be good to offer some more challenging / involved exercises that require more of a combination of techniques and structure from various sections of the lessons.
Otherwise I’m quite happy with this app and really enjoy pulling it up when I have 20-30 minutes to myself. Nice work!
