NomadFlowCode lets you manage your development servers directly from your iPhone or iPad. Connect to your self-hosted NomadFlowCode server and get full control over your git repositories, feature branches, and terminal sessions β wherever you are. KEY FEATURES β’ Git Worktree Management β Each feature branch gets its own dedicated worktree. Switch between features instantly without stashing or losing context. β’ Full Terminal Access β Open a real terminal session on your server right from the app. Run commands, edit files, and debug code on the go via ttyd integration. β’ Tmux Session Management β Every feature branch automatically gets its own tmux window. Your running processes stay alive even when you disconnect. β’ Multi-Server Support β Connect to multiple development servers. Manage different projects across different machines from one app. β’ Repository Overview β Browse all your git repositories, see active feature branches, and quickly jump into any project. β’ Branch Creation β Create new feature branches from any base branch directly from your phone. The app sets up the worktree and tmux session automatically. HOW IT WORKS NomadFlowCode consists of two parts: 1. A lightweight Rust binary that runs on your development server. It provides an HTTP API, a WebSocket terminal proxy, and an optional TUI wizard for setup. 2. This mobile app, which connects to your server over your network. All communication stays between your device and your server β no cloud services, no third parties. REQUIREMENTS β’ A Linux or macOS machine running the NomadFlowCode server binary β’ Git and tmux installed on the server β’ ttyd for terminal access β’ Network connectivity between your phone and server NomadFlowCode is open-source software.

A local-first Git client. Your code never leaves your device. PalmGit is a Git client built for iPhone and iPad, allowing you to perform complete Git operations on your iPhone, including clone, commit, push, and branch management. There is no account system and no cloud server; your code and credentials always stay local on your iPhone or iPad. Complete Git Operations Supports core Git functions such as repository initialization, clone, pull, push, commit, branch management, merge, viewing commit history, and file diffs. Whether you are reviewing an urgent code change or handling a quick fix, you can do it on your iPhone or iPad. Local File Management Browse local directories, create, edit, and delete files, and view file diffs. All file operations act directly on the local repository directory you specify and are not uploaded to any server. Branch Visualization View merge history intuitively. Complete complex branch operations without the command line. True Privacy Protection No sign-up or login. We do not operate a user data server. Your code, repository contents, and Git credentials always stay local on your iPhone or iPad. Git credentials are encrypted and stored using iOS Keychain, and we cannot read them. In-App Purchase Basic features are free to use. The paid expansion increases the range of accessible directories (from within the sandbox to external directories explicitly authorized by the user), enabling scenarios such as repository export and sharing, and managing authorized artifacts from other apps. Transactions are securely handled by the Apple App Store, and we do not access your payment information.
