Coding is normally done on the desktop, as the keyboard provides special keys. The keyboard of android phones is usually limited in this respect.

Is coding possible smart phones at all ?

    Possible, yes. But an awful experience if you don’t have a physical keyboard, even one of those cheap bluetooth ones. It’s barely bearable if you have one, since the screen is still too small.

    On Android, I can vouch for Acode and Xed-Editor, both available on F-droid, as code editors to help you program. Not ideal, but if you have no other option than using your phone to program, they’re good choices.
