Description

Kodex is an advanced code editor which brings powerful and desktop-class editor features to your iPad or iPhone:
* Multi-caret editing, to quickly transform code selections.
* Regex search and replace, with template matching and replace-all-matches.
* Minimap which allows quick scroll navigation though the document.
* Multiple window support
* Syntax highlighting for over 150 languages.
* Trackpad support with custom gestures to add cursors (ctrl+shift+click).
* Auto complete feature (currently only for HTML).
* Add as many guide columns as you wish (default 80 and 120 characters).
* Configurable tab size (default 4 spaces), or insert spaces when pressing tab.
* Draw hints for invisible characters such as new lines, tabs, and spaces.
* Customizable key bindings, so you can configure Kodex to use the same key combos you are already used to.
* Kodex smartly preserves your open documents so that your work stays as you left it between launches.
* Light and Dark modes.
Kodex is integrated with the Files app, so you can easily open files from any other app, and from your iCloud documents folder.
You can launch Kodex QuickEdit from any file sharing view in any app to edit its contents without launching the main Kodex App (be aware this functionality depends on the host app implementing the sharing activity properly).
Included are 10 editor themes, and several monospaced fonts for code editing (you can install your own preferred fonts using system profiles). Font size and line spacing are adjustable, so you can configure Kodex to best fit your preferred screen size, arrangement, and orientation.
Kodex is not a compiler, and you can not build or run the code you edit from it. Think of Kodex as a NotePad++ or Sublime Text substitute for iPhone and iPad.
Kodex is currently optimized for external keyboards, such as Apple's Smart Keyboard for the iPad Pro, or any bluetooth/USB keyboard. More virtual keyboard features will be added in a future version.

Kodex Reviews

Really needs a Replace All feature

Brilliant but I have to switch to Koder to do Replace All. Also using Share to app to open a file (eg to do a search) is awkward because usually you end up accidentally quitting the app instead of cancelling the search. No updates in a while now. Ad free and color combos for context sensitive editing have better contrast than most. I regularly forget if it's Kodex or Koder I want when opening a file. App idea is green/blue rather than red.

Forced word wrap?

Are you serious?! Where is the word wrap off button?!?

Sprites!?!

I want to code and i can but i cant add spites can someone please tell me!

Love it

But it needs shortcut support, so we can use it to edit text and pass it back to the shortcut when done. Also search next doesn’t work, only previous 🤷‍♂️ so you have to search back through a document 😂

How do I run the code?

I really like this app but I don’t know how to run the code, Can you help me pls?

Really good apart from one thing

Overall it’s amazing because you can actually edit code on the go and easily, there is a beautiful user interface and it’s efficient The only thing is you can’t run your programs, or at least not to my knowledge. Running the code is as important as making it because you could waste your time making errors without having the ability to test it. This is why I am giving it 4 stars at the moment because it is better than other apps, but could have this one extra feature.

Great for HTML

Used it to edit some HTML and worked like a charm

Cool application

I like this application.

Outstanding

Nice simple interface that does exactly what it says it does. The app appears to have been born out of a desire to have something very specific, without too many bells and whistles. In that it definitely succeeds. The Developer seems to be active in updating and fixing the app, and only asks that you consider and if possible donate to his continued development. This is a nice honest option that allows you to test the app, before donating to his funds. All in all and excellent app.

Completely erased work

Been working out of this app for a couple of weeks. Generally fine, but ran into a huge problem today. The program somehow completely erased the entirety of a file, without the ability to undo, and since it auto saves everything, it completely overwrote everything. Luckily I back up everything every night. But I just lost 3-4 hours of work, which is going to be a big struggle to reproduce. Frustrated is NOT a strong enough word for this. I’ll be moving onto a different editor after this. I couldn’t even quit without saving.
