![]() FileExplorer is a nice companion app for some file transfer situations but I mostly use that on my local network when transferring back and forth to my Mac which is basically just a file server now. Textastic serves for about 90% with it’s excellent built in FTP, tabbed code editor and built-in preview. Since that time I’ve been doing all of my web work on iPad with a mix of Textastic and FileExplorer. The day they made that announcement I stopped using Coda as well as the writing was on the wall. ![]() I was already searching and using alternatives when they announced the end of Transmit on iOS. I dont recall if it syncs with dropbox or not it might be iCloud Drive only. Like Textedit on the Mac, it fills the middle ground between an all-text markdown editor and a full word processor. The biggest stand-out was any option to use the Files app. You can download fonts from the App Store app, then use them in documents you create on iPad. TextEdit+ is a decent plain text and RTF editor. On iOS, now iPadOS, I think Panic’s apps are overrated and seemed slow to adopt new iOS features. In fact, it’s the app that within months of the release of the original iPad had me thinking that the iPad was a real tool that I could use for updating client websites and I used in many times a week. ![]() I used it during the first few years of the iPad before Panic offered Diet Coda and it was a great app. It does have many features including syntax highlighting, snippet manager, tabbed editing, find and replace code, editor theme, remote and local files connections, and many more. ![]() Back with the very first iPad, “Gusto” was an app that actually offered a similar interface to Coda in that it had a sites view as well as code editor, ftp and preview. Koder is a code editor for iPad and iPhone. There were other developers offering excellent apps of this sort before Panic and others still offering excellent apps that fill this need. ![]()
