Is coding possible smart phones at all ?
I often find myself issuing a quick fix or something by pulling out my phone, opening Termux, remoting into a server with SSH, and editing a text file with something like Nano. That is, for all intents and purposes, coding. And it works well enough for that. I am generally familiar with the project via my time with it on desktop, so I know what small change I need to make and can do so quickly with just about any text editor. And even if I want to create an entire small script from scratch via my phone, I generally have the whole process mapped out in my head and just need to use the phone to type it out.
But anything that requires a lot of typing or screen space is generally better to do on desktop. Even though something could technically be achieved on a 6" screen using an onscreen keyboard, many things are simply more streamlined and effortless using multiple windows and a physical keyboard.
Which keypad do you use in your phone ?
I use Heliboard mainly, and then I have Unexpected Keyboard installed as well and switch to it on the rare occasion I run into something that is difficult to do with Heliboard.
Can you suggest a good replacement for vs code ?? Which is Foss ??
Linux:
Android:
I can vouch for these; I asked around before and looked around for shiny linux native things, and just ended up with these instead.
I can also vouch for Yakuake if you want a nice terminal. it runs constantly and can pop down with a key combo.
