CodePad is a lightweight, high-performance local network client designed specifically for developers using web-based editors (such as code-server) on mobile devices. It bridges the gap between touch screens and professional desktop IDE workflows. Key Features: Physical Keyboard Remapping: Intercepts crucial system shortcuts like Cmd+W, Cmd+T, Cmd+S, and Cmd+P, and routes them directly to your web editor instead of triggering default browser behaviors. 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. Local Auto-Discovery: Scans your local network using mDNS protocols to find active development hosts without manually typing IP addresses.
