DraftCode for PHP IDE

Highly recommended to those who want learn PHP with iPad, this app is excellent because it work on offline, which is mean I can build & test a website fully offline without internet. It will be perfect if it support with Zen Coding, is too tire to retype every single syntax... XD. Thank you so much for build this app, love it so much!

Nice design and easy to use It will be perfect if it supports: - html / javascript syntax highlight - highlight enclosing bracket - duplicate file / document

The app have a lot bug need fix and hope can add some more shortcut,like redo typing,copy and past folder not only move,additional keys,code completion,search and replace word. And Chinese typing word in problem need fix. Official website are not way to contact developer. Only way leave a message here.

Great to finally have a way to edit and run php, javascript, html on an ipad whether connected or not to the internet.

I snagged this app to allow me to work on WordPress sites from my iPad while traveling / flying. Out the gate I ran into an issue as I think there was a WP update at the same time. Thomas was responsive and helped me through the issue as well as updated the app. Great responsiveness and I’m thrilled with the app!

Using this to run WordPress and works well if in the app BUT I’ve yet to figure out a way to actually use the iOS Safari browser to see the site. Hoping there’s some way I’ve just overlooked. Documentation doesn’t mention anything.

While the app does exactly what it says, there's some things you should know before dropping the 10 bucks: - The Javascript messages viewer is always empty no matter how many times you try to print through the console. - You can't Cmd+F or Cmd+G to quickly find strings or lines. This is a huge blow to working on larger documents. - You can't quickly navigate lines because tapping any line only brings you to the front, and Home/End don't work. - Scroll position jumps to either the top or bottom of the document every time you switch between files. - You can't work from an existing workspace folder; you MUST copy a folder into the program's folder in order to work on it, or manually import individual files. That means if you're working on a number of files you have on Dropbox, every edit you make must be manually saved, file by file, back into the original folder. - And this is made doubly difficult by the fact that copying between the two locations is a nightmare on iOS. I can't even paste my project into the DraftCode folder anymore because I just get an error saying "Couldn't communicate with a helper application". This is actually a Dropbox problem, but it's one that you have to be aware of since you can't work straight from the Dropbox folder.

This is a great tool in combination with version control to get an existing code base to run locally, make a few changes locally, and upload to test/deploy. Do not expect this to be a robust development platform like on a desktop. It is amazing enough I can run a full install of WP and make specific changes, see them, then deploy them. Major win!

I find this mobile IDE to be becoming a trusty tool in my workflow belt. While, there are bugs (especially the undo roulette, lol), I will say, at this moment, this is the best of its kind of app on the market, in my opinion. I look forward to following the developers as you all continue to enhance this wonderful application.

Has huge issues and cant be relied upon. Too many issues to work around or even mention here. Dont expect this to work well. I hope that they fix it.
