I'm curious it being Node.js. It can run my js file on flight mode so isn't using a remote execution. But I didn't believe you could run node.js on an iPad due to the Apple restrictions (hopefully I'm wrong).
That said, the whole ecosystem of Node.js is about bringing in modules. I can't see any mention of how to do that.
How is it a window manager when it's just an app with whatever screens it appropriate to display?
It's no more a window manager than sketchbooks in drawing apps.
I’ll probably try this out, but what I really want is something like Max/MSP so is don’t have to type so much (although I do have a keyboard for my iPad, but it’s not something I like to type for long durations on)
Codea for Lua https://codea.io/
Pythonista for Python http://omz-software.com/pythonista/
Continuous for .NET http://continuous.codes/
Codea and Pythonista also provide XCode templates you can drop your code into to create App Store apps from your projects. Not sure about Continuous.
Apple allowing iCloud syncing for code has removed the last real source of friction I'd had using Pythonista. Now I can write a script on my iPad, then reach over and run it on my phone, then if it's cross-platform sit at my Mac and run it from there too before checking it into Github. No fuss, no bother.
It is my go-to solution for when i have an idea and just want to build it quickly anywhere.
There is experimental support to use VSCode as the editor, togglable in the options.
- A fully featured linux desktop with Visual Studio Code and a terminal
- A sandboxed terminal with persistent storage
- A text editor and a rust compiler
- A text editor
I could always ssh into my raspberry pi while at home, which is my second best solution. But, if anyone has some ideas/solutions in mind that require even a large bit of tinkering, please tell me :)
Coda on iPad + Raspberry Pi (or an old Mac mini) make a pretty nice dev environment.
If you are more of a VIM guy, something like Terminus works well too.
I'm trying to use this with WebViews to hack together a multi-window, multi-tab browser thing, not sure if this is something that exists already.
The main issue with this is that it closes all of the windows when you switch away from this app, making it quite inconvenient at the moment.
Couldn’t figure out how to add modules.
Auto-prettier would be awesome.
Or Samsung's Linux on DeX works well for app dev on your phone.
The Galaxy Tab S4 supports DeX right on the tablet AFAIK.
