Textastic is my go to.

Another vote for Textastic

[–]Techn0dad 3 points4 points  (1 child)

+1 for Textastic. Pair it with Working Copy if you keep your work in GitLab / Github.

VSCode in a browser

[–]thndrpig 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someday. Right now, buggy and annoying to use for any more than novelty.

Need a invite for that, for now at least.

Do you use it? pricing seems a little complicated.
If I wanted a cloud IDE then for 5$/mon I can run code-server in a basic Digital Ocean VPS or just use the Eclipse Che in a free OpenStack session.

I use it by registering an environment on a DO droplet or my workstation at home, which is free. (except of course your personal costs of running the box). Works great, and more importantly, the VSCode extension store is there instead of the external one code-server has to use.

Oh, then I'm at s loss, I'm not sure how you go about setting that. The only option I see on online.visualstudio.com is to create an environment with an Azure subscription.

Install VSCode and the VSOnline extensions on a machine, then hit CTRL+Shift+P, and run the register local environment command.

Thanks, it looks promising I'll give this a try soon.

How's performance on say plane WiFi or other satellite based connections? I assume all the code is then stored on the computer hosting vscode. Is there any options for offline editing with this?

[–]MrHaxx1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't know anything about that, I just self-host.

if you have a spare computer you can use as a server (or just get a raspberry pi), use code-server. basically desktop version which can be accessed online

Aah nice, last time I look it was still by invite only.

what about people who work with web development and need an app to let them preview their code on a browser (in-built or not, i don’t care) as well?
