When code was first created, the language and syntax of the programming language was written in pen and paper, and handed down by word of mouth and books to other coders. Today, all the documentation about a language can be found online. Code is often typed on a computer screen rather than written down in the ancient way of the pen and paper. However, increasingly more, in a world where we want to fill all of our free time with productive actions, it would be really useful if there was a platform to code on a phone. Yes, it would most likely be the best if programming was done on a computer, but to pull out a computer or laptop in the middle of a packed crowded train in tech hubs such as Silicon Valley and New York City would be a mistake. It would be putting candy in front of people who potentially will wan to take your stuff.
However, the issue with finding a solution to this issue is because coding takes a lot of lines and flexibility. Many times, when one codes, it is necessary to pull out several files each pertaining to different aspects of the application. For instance, one file for the database, one file for the data that needs to be imported, and one for each type of code file. However, as on the go, people tend to use smaller devices such as the phone in order to protect their gadgets, it is difficult to find a compromise between flexibility and security.
Increasingly the iPad and similar tablets are being utilized. And in creating an application to allow coding on the go, it might be of our best interest to put more of our efforts to optimizing a coding platform on the iPad as it is more feasible and more practical than a platform on a tiny smartphone.
