Hi,right now,I only saw one ide(free) on android phone.i would like to proposed a nsb appstudio on android platform.it would be portable,able to take anywhere,able to program anytime.it would be able to convert leisure time to previous coding time.i believe ,by doing so,it would boost sales of appstudio product by ~30 % and grab a greater market share.dont you think likewise,fellow developers?thanks in advance,tst
And while we’re giving our wish list for thenew year, how about Linux computer?
This would be a mammoth job - and would be unable to do things like signing, uploading to stores, etc. A couple of our earlier products (for Newton and Windows CE) were able to do this, but it’s no longer an option. The requirements and run time environments have become much more complex.
Do you mean run AppStudio on Linux? It can be done now using Win4Lin or VMWare.
Theoretically, we could build a native Linux installer, but we have not see a lot of demand for it.
Another option, of course, is to make a web (PWA?) version of the IDE that can be run from iOS or Android.
Yes, run AppStudio on Linux. I’ve used VMWare on a Windows PC to run older versions of Windows, but I’m looking for a way to not have to use any Windows and migrate to a Linux system replacement. Not familiar with Win4Lin, will look into this. Thanks for the suggestions.

We haven’t tried it here, but it may be possible to run AppStudio under Wine. If you try this, let us know if you run into problems.
Hi all,May be a single web appstudio version for all , windows, Linux,Mac,android, iOS,and perhaps future pi phone.best rdgs,tst
Even though I suggested this, I have since realized that there are a lot of problems with it—the main one is that the IDE needs to save the state periodically (and before each test). Web apps can not save to the local file system automatically—they need to ask the user each time. This is a protective security measure that seems to be quite solid.
A web act would need to save the data to a web site (which can be done automatically), but it means your program wouldn’t be on your disk drive but rather in NSB cloud somewhere.
Also, NSB would probably have to charge extra for the server storage.
Noted with thanks…
Godot 3d ide is free at Google store,it doesn’t charge for anything.best rdgs,tst
Hi,ok,I will drop the idea of online appstudio.it would make the product unnecessarily expensive.and godot 3d is a free product,which has a lot of donation to support it
where,app studio doesn’t have such advantage.best rdgs,tst
