Repl.it Mobile App
As some of you may know, Repl.it isn't the most mobile-friendly website. I'm considering making a mobile app for it, and I'm asking the community:
Would you be interested in this? Would you use it if it was good enough?
And does anyone here want to help contribute? I'm open to any suggestions about technologies to use and I'm up to learning something new.
Please upvote or comment if you'd use it and comment if you want to help. And if you aren't interested I'd love to hear why. Thanks!
UPDATE: Until there's something more official, I made a Discord server.
UPDATE 2: I just released our MVP!!!
This is pretty cool, @Kognise! Can you keep me in the loop with how it goes?
@katyadee Sure! If you want, there's a discord server where the devs I found will be posting updates: https://discord.gg/sVxJJZA
I'm still a novice, but I'd like to contribute as much as possible. :D
@Zavexeon Great! We would appreciate as much feedback as possible and accept help from you!
@ryanhallihan Yay ^w^
@Zavexeon Wanna join our discord server? https://discord.gg/sVxJJZA
You got my upvote
yesss!!!
Hmm! Good idea! I was thinking myself about making not an app, but a progressive web app which embeds repl.it and maybe makes some changes to the interface, but this is a good idea as well!
if you want
I would use it if it was smooth. The website is terrible on mobile, I can contribute, what technology are you using?
I wish I could join but I don't have access to discord atm, on a school chromebook :((
any chance of a Slack workspace?
yaaas
I would love to contribute! Please count me in! :)
@yelephant Awesome! Make sure to join the discord server here, and thanks
yes mainly just for starting up codes away from my computer please
this would be nice

Yes! Please! I have thought the same thing and am willing to help make this app! Hit me up if you want to continue and I have some development tools in mind.
Mobile version Repl.it is really bad. I can’t copy paste, I can’t use apostrophes...
please please let us copy paste and use apostrophes...
@rediar if you're interested, I made a Discord server for people interested in the Repl.it mobile app until we have something more official.
@Kognise Thanks also happy birthday, have you gotten the website fixed yet?
@rediar Which one? And thanks!
Hell yes, I've had some truly horrible experience trying to use Repl.it on mobile
@minx28 if you're interested, I made a Discord server for people interested in the Repl.it mobile app until we have something more official.
i rarely use replit on anything except a desktop, but when i do, i literally cannot edit or run. i usually just chrome remote desktop to my home pc, but that's really slow. i bet there would be people who actually do use replit on mobile, so i think it's worth it

I think @HS was working on this (from discord), at least an android version. I forgot if he stopped.
Also, don't forget to post feedback to https://repl.it/feedback :p

But beyond that, I would really want a mobile app (ahem ahem take note repl)
Agreed. They should have a desktop app as well.
@PYer One actually does exist! Leon was working on it https://github.com/repl-it-discord/repl.it-electron
@Kognise ill take a look at it
