Native Clipboard Bridge: Bypasses browser security restrictions on non-secure HTTP local connections, allowing seamless code copying and pasting. Scrollable Developer Toolbar: A responsive, swipeable on-screen accessory bar providing instant access to Esc, Tab, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+D, and arrow keys right above the virtual keyboard. Multiple Node Manager: Save and organize multiple development machines with passwords securely saved.
