Textastic Code Editor

the ability to open text files inside file packages is the killer feature

Filed this bug many months ago and never got a response, so I have to assume this will never get fixed. Unfortunately makes this app pretty much useless to me. Regret paying for it.

Zusammen mit Working copy kann ich alles was mit coden zu tun hat auch am iPad erledigen. Schnell eine Webpage bearbeiten, Python code durchstöbern,.. Das virtuelle Keyboard ist ebenfalls genial. Man hat schnell alle Sonderzeichen verfügbar.

Schade dass mir diese Perle nicht früher aufgefallen ist. Ich arbeite SEHR gerne damit. 🧑‍💻 Die Programmierung war sicher viel Arbeit. Ich zahle gerne wenn’s das Produkt wert ist 🥂

Hervorragender Texteditor: • Bearbeiten von allen Dateien in iOS-Speicherorten möglich (ideal für Git-Clients) • Kann problemlos mit grossen Dateien umgehen • Umfangreiches Syntax-Highlighting • Meine Lieblingsschriftart Fira Code verfügbar

Ich habe viele probiert, aber Textastic ist der Bester Editor wenn es ums Coding oder Configfiles geht. Mit der Integration von x-callback URLs kann man auch schöne Workflows bauen um gewissen Dinge zu automatisieren.

When using an iPad Pro as a laptop this app comes in handy. Great for coding with its integration with other Git applications and even for saving plain text files to share between devices. The ability to connect to and edit files over SSH is something you won’t find in a typical text editor. Great for developers and everyday users alike. Been using it on all my iOS and iPadOS devices for years now.

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but JESUS CHRIST is coding easier than I thought on mobile. I’ve been working on the huge project (literally every wakening second of my life) and being able to work on my phone is a godsend. I bought Textastic with the impression of “oh, god…”, but I instead got “yay!” Even transferring files between my Mac and my phone was easy. I thought I would have to lug a flash drive with me, but—nope—Textastic has WebDAV ‘n’ stuff built in. The only negative thing I can come up with is that there isn’t syntax error detection, but considering I did a lot of my coding in TextEdit, I’m used to that already. Thank you!

I spent a long time looking for a good SSH client and text editor for the iPad and was resigned to using sub-par products until I found Textastic. I use it mostly with an iPad Pro, external keyboard, and mouse and it's easier to do coding via SSH on my iPad now than my desktop. I love that I can write markdown, HTML, CSS, Python, or YAML and Textastic handles them all. Even when I don't have my keyboard with me, I am not left without essential keys (hello, esc anyone?) that can be hard to find on the built-in virtual keyboard. Plus function keys!!! OMG. I even use it to write files to Obsidian (markdown) when I'm working and don't want to switch apps. Textastic is super versatile and the developer keeps on making improvements, so it's just getting better. Plus, it's not a subscription and they don't track you or invade your privacy. This is the best text editor on the iPad BAR NONE.

Still true. You can't beat it. Provides everything you need. Absolutely the best kind of software.
