Recent reviews
Just got started and I am very impressed. I am using a Chromebook to get most of the coding done prior to uploading to the server for testing.
I am using an 11 inch display on my Chromebook, so an option would be to be able to close the right hand outline of the file and also to hide the file tree.
Another suggestion would be reviewing your themes as i was looking for a light theme. The one issue I came across is that you cannot read highlighted text when you copying or whatever.
These are just suggestions for future releases. I would recommend kicking the tires on this app.
Please make this app open source, I would love to crack it open and look inside it. Otherwise it is a very good editor and serves my purpose very well!
Well it would be good if Debug features and a terminal would be on this but else it's pretty good
