Kodex vs DevBox

Kodex is an advanced code editor which brings powerful and desktop-class editor features to your iPad or iPhone: * Multi-caret editing, to quickly transform code selections. * Regex search and replace, with template matching and replace-all-matches. * Minimap which allows quick scroll navigation though the document. * Multiple window support * Syntax highlighting for over 150 languages. * Trackpad support with custom gestures to add cursors (ctrl+shift+click). * Auto complete feature (currently only for HTML). * Add as many guide columns as you wish (default 80 and 120 characters). * Configurable tab size (default 4 spaces), or insert spaces when pressing tab. * Draw hints for invisible characters such as new lines, tabs, and spaces. * Customizable key bindings, so you can configure Kodex to use the same key combos you are already used to. * Kodex smartly preserves your open documents so that your work stays as you left it between launches. * Light and Dark modes. Kodex is integrated with the Files app, so you can easily open files from any other app, and from your iCloud documents folder. You can launch Kodex QuickEdit from any file sharing view in any app to edit its contents without launching the main Kodex App (be aware this functionality depends on the host app implementing the sharing activity properly). Included are 10 editor themes, and several monospaced fonts for code editing (you can install your own preferred fonts using system profiles). Font size and line spacing are adjustable, so you can configure Kodex to best fit your preferred screen size, arrangement, and orientation. Kodex is not a compiler, and you can not build or run the code you edit from it. Think of Kodex as a NotePad++ or Sublime Text substitute for iPhone and iPad. Kodex is currently optimized for external keyboards, such as Apple's Smart Keyboard for the iPad Pro, or any bluetooth/USB keyboard. More virtual keyboard features will be added in a future version.

DevBox is a code editor and IDE that runs PHP, Python, Node.js and Go on your phone or tablet, with a local web server, a MySQL database and a Linux terminal. No laptop and no remote server. Open a project, tap Run, and your site opens in the built-in browser at localhost. Change a file, refresh, and see the result. Write code, run it, and preview it: a full web development IDE on the device. WHAT YOU CAN BUILD • PHP sites on PHP 8.5 with .htaccess support, or a Laravel app with Composer • A Node.js server or API, or a React, Vue, Angular or Svelte app with npm install and npm run dev • Python scripts and web apps, with libraries from pip • Go programs and web servers • HTML, CSS and JavaScript websites with live preview • Apps backed by a MySQL database, managed with phpMyAdmin CODE EDITOR • Syntax highlighting for PHP, JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Go, HTML, CSS and more • Find and replace, go to line, code formatting and tabs for open files • A key row above the keyboard for brackets, quotes and symbols LOCAL WEB SERVER AND PREVIEW • PHP, Node.js, Python and Go dev servers on localhost, with output and request logs • Built-in browser with Eruda DevTools to inspect your pages LINUX TERMINAL • A real Linux terminal (Alpine) with command history and scrollback • npm, pip, composer, go and git, plus more tools and compilers from apk MYSQL AND PHPMYADMIN • A MariaDB server on the device that works with any MySQL library • Create databases and users, run SQL, import and export dumps in phpMyAdmin GIT • Clone, commit, branch, push and pull over HTTPS or SSH • GitHub, GitLab or your own server; search GitHub and import a repo as a new project MORE • Open projects from local storage, FTP or SSH, and iCloud Drive on iPhone and iPad • Start a project from a template, an empty folder or an AI prompt • AI tools to improve, refactor or comment your code • Offline docs for PHP, Node.js, Python and Go Pick a language, write your code in the code editor, and tap Run to start coding with an IDE that fits in your pocket. The terminal and MariaDB are available as one-time purchases or with DevBox Pro. Installing packages, Git remotes and the AI assistant need an internet connection; writing, running and previewing code work offline. --- Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://devbox.porizm.com/privacy?lang=en
