SwiftyTerminal vs Pad Code AI

Learn Linux commands on your iPhone or iPad. SwiftyTerminal is a pocket shell where you can practice ls, grep, sed, awk, pipes and redirects, plus ping, nslookup and SSH. When you get stuck, ask the Command Copilot in plain English: describe what you want to do and get a real command you can run. Type ? followed by a task, like "? show hidden files", and the answer lands in the input line, ready to run or edit. Type explain before any command line and it is broken down piece by piece, so you learn as you go. On devices with Apple Intelligence the copilot runs on the on-device model. Everywhere else it answers from a built-in offline guide. Nothing you type leaves your device. COMMAND COPILOT - Plain English to a runnable command, checked against the commands this app actually has - Type explain before a command to decode pipes, options and redirects - Commands that delete or overwrite data are never run for you: they wait in the input line - Recent answers are saved so you can run them again - A searchable reference of every built-in command, with examples ASK FROM ANYWHERE - Shortcuts: Explain a Terminal Command, Suggest a Terminal Command, Run in Terminal, Open Command Copilot - Say "Explain grep in SwiftyTerminal" or "Ask SwiftyTerminal for a command" - Every command is searchable from Spotlight FILES AND TEXT List, create, copy, move and delete files and folders with ls, cd, mkdir, touch, cp, mv, rm and cat. Inspect with file, wc, head and tail. Search and process text with find, grep (-i -v -n -c), sort, uniq, sed and awk, plus pipes, redirects and glob patterns. NETWORK TOOLS ping, nslookup, curl, netcat and port scans for hosts you own, plus SSH sessions with remote commands and file transfer. SYSTEM AND SCRIPTING date, cal, uptime, df, uname, environment variables, aliases and history. A built-in mini Python and Lua interpreter for quick math and variables. A FRESH LOOK A hand-drawn design with living "thinking orb" animations, a Liquid Glass input bar, four terminal themes and adjustable text size. Reduce Motion calms every animation. SwiftyTerminal is a simulated terminal that runs entirely inside the app sandbox. It does not download or run external code. Who it's for: developers, students learning the command line, IT and network folks, and anyone curious about Unix commands.

Turn ideas into working code on iPad and iPhone. Pad Code AI brings an editor, local code runners, a terminal and project tools into one workspace. WRITE AND RUN Run C, C++, Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Ruby, PHP, Lua and SQLite queries on your device with bundled compilers and interpreters. Use interactive input, command-line arguments and project files. Preview HTML and CSS projects. Language and library support depends on the included runtime. EDIT AND ORGANIZE Work with syntax highlighting, find in files, individual-file replacement, code folding and snippets. Open project folders through Files, manage multiple files, review Git changes, commit and push, and export projects as ZIP. SMARTER EDITING AND GIT SYNC Code completion suggests keywords, types and names from your file as you type, and works with VoiceOver. Pull changes from GitHub: edits made on both sides are merged line by line, and overlapping lines are marked for you to choose. Your projects also appear in the Files app. AI, WHEN YOU WANT IT Ask for explanations, refactoring ideas, tests or fixes. Review suggested changes before applying them. On-device AI requires a compatible system and device with Apple Intelligence enabled. Optional third-party AI requires your own credentials and an internet connection; availability varies by region. You choose what context to share. LEARN AND BUILD ANYWHERE Practice programming, try small scripts and develop project ideas. Local code execution works offline; Git network operations and remote AI require internet access. The interface is available in 20 languages. Support: https://phamhungtien.com/PadCodeAI PREVIEW SUPPORT Preview HTML, CSS and browser JavaScript with WebKit. Swift/SwiftUI, Metal and native OpenGL visual previews are not supported. Swift and other unsupported languages are editing-only. WORKSPACE AGENT With a compatible configured provider, the optional Workspace Agent can inspect code, create and edit text files, rename or delete files, and run supported code inside the project you open. Agent Changes shows saved changes, before/after diffs and Undo. The app checks for intervening edits before writing or restoring. You explicitly enable access and choose what context to share. Provider credentials are your own; multi-step requests may incur additional provider charges. This is a bounded project workflow, not an unrestricted system shell or package installer. New editor color themes and a refined interface. Git over HTTPS now supports GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket and compatible servers, using standard repositories with branches, commits, stash, push and pull. Python can import compatible packages, including NumPy and pandas. Package downloads require internet; not every PyPI package is supported. Programs using only the bundled standard library can run offline. Improved language icons and links to video guides. Start faster with ready-to-run Python, web, C and JavaScript project templates.
