Ratings and reviews

This app is honestly pretty nice. It doesn't have a paid version, which is already really good, it has no ads, and guess what- it has a dark mode! Some keywords are color coded, and it also lets you save and load things! Only things I think could be better would be that whenever an error occurs, it skips lines with comments and such. This makes it difficult to see the issue. Other than that, I just want the console to scroll properly with loops.

Decent! Simple! Clean! But not great... yet! The console output is styled well. Array and object data outputted to the console is staggered and displayed in a very readable way, instead of as a long line of comma separated values strung together between two brackets, as with other poorly designed apps. One major problem is that there is no line numbering!! You'll have to count the lines yourself to find every "Error in line # :..." error. Another issue is the "run" button on the top toolbar. It should always be floating directly above the keyboard so that a user doesn't have to reach so far, to the top of the screen, to run code. Allow the option to position it to the right or left of the screen, for left handed users. At least "run" hides the keyboard when pressed to show the console, which is good. Next, the cursor is too sensitive. When there are many lines to scroll through, the cursor behaves badly and jumps about following the lowest line displayed or, sometimes, your scrolling finger. It should stay where it was left by the user, until explicitly re-positioned. Needs a few more themes and font styles/sizes.

It's Good! I use it to practice a and trouble shoot code when away from the computer/laptop, which is quite often. My only complaint is that, when there is an error, the location of the error is not correct. For instance, my error will be on line 50, but it will say that it is on line "7"....... other than that... awesome...
