It is allowed to write code on iOS.
There are several code editors for iOS https://duckduckgo.com/?q=ios+code+editor https://duckduckgo.com/?q=ios+code+editor and Apple has even published an own app for students to learn coding called Swift Playgrounds https://www.apple.com/swift/playgrounds/ https://www.apple.com/swift/playgrounds/ - it isn't a full-blown code editor, but it clearly allows you to write and run code.
And that is ignoring cloud/browser-based code editors. That execution model (write code local, run in the cloud) makes sense with mobile devices which have limited power supply. I personally don't want to spin up several docker containers on my iPhone ;)

Especially if it not a phone but a 12.5 inch iPad that is supposed to be more powerful than my 5-year-old dev laptop (and has more RAM too). > It is allowed to write code on iOS Great, so you can pen&paper your code like in the 1960s. In the 21st century, writing code includes being able to run the compiler/interpreter on your terminal to debug as well.
- wlesieutre 7y agoYou can run code on an iPad too, though it's more useful for on-device utilities than for writing code that you want to ship somewhere else. http://omz-software.com/pythonista/ http://omz-software.com/pythonista/ https://scriptable.app/ https://scriptable.app/
