Kudos on the work. I was TOTALLY misled thinking I could dev right on the device (see Terminal IDE on Android...). $10 for a remote wrapper is too rich for my blood.

I'm pretty sure a jerk would jump in a Faraday cage and cite how they couldn't use the app.
I'd like to point out that the developer of this application is 17 years old. He's a student at the school I work at and a fantastic programmer. I don't know whether he'd be annoyed at me for mentioning this or not, but given some of the negativity in the comments, I think it's worth noting. I can't imagine the type of applications he'll be developing in a few years time.
Now for the criticism....
I sometimes use the iPad as a development environment, and this is approaching it in the complete wrong way. If you even want to think about developing on-device, then you have to jailbreak. That isn't even like, a question. Then all you need to do is get theos [2]. You don't even need a mac build server. The iPad compiles the code. And you can run it without a developer's license.
It's basically $100 license + internet connection + an mac server to build on + ths app's price vs. completely 100% free (+ your choice of development environment instead of being locked into a proprietary GUI text editor). That's why this isn't good.

So now that we are on the subject of IDE's for ipads. What are some other nice apps to edit other languages on the go?
I use https://panic.com/prompt/ on my iPhone & iPad to SSH into a machine and then just use VIM from there.
I've never seen something like this before
It's a clever system: the app is really a text editor which sends the code you write to your Mac. Your Mac builds the app and sends the binary back to your iPad. Pros: * Code when you're on the move because... laptops haven't been invented yet? Cons: * You need an internet connection all the time. * No support for any version control system??? "Import your project from Dropbox and Dringend will handle syncing any cha…
Apple's been working on Xcode for years, give this one some time to catch up.
IB: I doubt re-implementing Interface Builder on iOS would be a good use of time. Probably better off using some good screen sharing software.
I wonder what breakpoints would even look like without different multitasking. I found a library [1] that allows you to send messages to the running app, maybe you could get something clever going on using URL schemes to swap between the "debugger" and the running app.

Hi there, I'm the developer of this app so just thought I'd reply to some of the cons you made. You don't need an internet connection all the time, just simply for building or running the application as Dringend needs to connect to the build server. Support for git is coming up in version 1.2 and is going to be in the hands of beta testers very soon. Features such as support for asset catalogs and XIBs/Storyboards ar…

Any particular reason why this app has the Dutch word for urgent as it's name?
