Good point! - web development IDE would be clearer

Yes, web development IDE is what we're getting at. We first built Inspect Browser, an iOS web browser with built-in dev tools, and figured an IDE for web development with Inspect Browser embedded would be a good next step.

Now, getting PHP and NodeJS to run on device was quite the ordeal...

If you want to develop on an iPad, we're building WebForge IDE: a web IDE for iOS.

Rich text editor, run PHP and NodeJS on device, manage Git repos, and view your projects in a built-in browser that includes dev tools.

Check it out! https://apps.apple.com/us/app/webforge-ide/id6450872424

EDIT: Web Development IDE, not web-based IDE. Thanks for pointing that out! :)

Love to see this! We’re the developers of Inspect Browser [0], the browser with dev tools you see in the screenshots. Our goal is to make tools to help web developers work on iPads, iPhones, and now Vision Pro- thrilled to see it in action!

Glad to answer any questions.

Fair enough, would be nice if there were a system terminal that could install software like desktop. We'll be the first to admit that iOS's shortcomings are what triggered us to start building the apps we do.

It's true iOS software in general has a ways to match desktop capabilities, but desktops also have a bit of a head-start. We do believe iOS can get there, and hopefully exceed it in some ways.

(And in WebForge's case, we not selling just the Git CLI, but a UI and tool integrated into the rest of the IDE, so you're not /just/ paying for access to FOSS software on iPad. And yes, I know VSCode is free on desktops :) )

We're building a web development environment for iPadOS/iOS that hopes to address some of the shortcomings developing iPad-only (and iPhone, but...)

Free to download, developer-tools browser built-in (Inspect Browser), Git and PHP available as an in-app purchase. Glad to answer any questions!
