It’s been just over a week since we released Koder 1.2 and now we proud to tell you that Koder 1.2.1 is now available in the appstore.

There is no major bug fix in this version, we just added a small, but can be very useful feature, the Firebug lite* support for Koder previewer browser ( yes you right, now you can inspect html elements using firebug on your iPad

To access this function is easy. You just need to open the previewer browser, access the Firebug menu by tapping the <> icon then the firebug console will show up.

So are you waiting for? Go ahead and download the update from the app store now.

Hello guys, just wanted to let you know that we have released the new update for Koder and it’s already in the Appstore today.  So go and get it while it’s hot

The main point of this version update is about addressing iOS5 compatibility issues + there are several new minor features such as the new bookmark function to help you remembering the URL while opening Koder previewer, ability to preview dropbox files etc.

Here are the complete change log :

Changelog in v 1.2 :

• Fixed various iOS5 issues

New Features:

• Added a bookmark function in the previewer browser to help remembering url
• Added Preview ability to dropbox, as long as files are located under Public folder
• Added ability to remember the path in “Copy” operation, so you can “Paste” files/folder more than one time in a project.
• Added ability to remember the path in “Download to Local” operation. Then you can perform “Paste from FTP” / “Paste from Dropbox”/”Paste from iDisk” more than one time in Local
• Added ability to remember the path in “Upload to FTP”/”Upload to Dropbox”/”Upload to iDisk” operation, So you can perform “Paste from Local” more than one time

Koder 1.1 is finally approved, it took a week for the Apple aproval.
Honestly, We were a bit worried with the export compliance approval process, but thanks god there’s no problem with that, so as you can see, now you can get Koder 1.1 on the appstore.

If you use iOS5 beta you might notice a few issues while running Koder 1.1, but I think you already know that it is your own risk to use a beta software, neither us nor Apple can make any guarantees of beta software.

Anyway, Apple has announced the release date of iOS5 today and they also have released GM version of iOS5 SDK + pra release documentation, so we are now starting to work addressing Koder incompatibility issue with iOS5.
Hopefully the new update (v 1.1.1) can be relased not far from the official iOS5 release date.

For you who want to know the Koder 1.1 changelog, you can read it here

Hi all, just wanted to let you know that Koder 1.1 was just submitted to the App Store and the approval status right now is “Waiting for Export Compliance” ( Yes, we just need an extra export compliance approval process because of the new SSH, FTPS and FTPS connection support ).
Hopefully there’s no problem with the approval process, so you can download it from the App Store soon

We also would like to say sorry to you who have been waiting for this update. Yes we have a delay and we could not keep the schedule that we built before, but we have to say we have tried doing our best.

After months of hard work and research, finally, we proudly present our first iOS app, Koder. It’s “A goood, rich featured code editor for ipad”

You probably will say, you have a mistype in the “goood” word. But, no. It’s not a typo.
We decide to add one more “o” letter in the word “good” of the app tagline, because we think two “o” letters are not enough to show the number of features that Koder have

Do not believe it? Fine, we’ll prove it :p

Remote Connections

Ok, for a start, koder supports ftp connection, dropbox, iDisk, and also local ipad document, where you can upload files to your ipad easly through desktop browser.
All remote connections are integrated with a sophisticated file browser with collapsible folder feature that make it easier for you to explore your files / folders structure.
And, its project-based support will help you to manage your coding task easily and allows you to perform multiple connections to FTP, dropbox and iDisk.

Built In Snippet Manager

Then, there is a built in snippet manager. You can save your favorite snippets and insert them to your source file easily

Tabbed Editing

Then you see that Koder have a tabbed editing. You can do the editing of multiple files at once with a tab interface, which will allow you to switch between opened files faster.

Syntax highlighting

Your coding work will be more easier with the syntax highlighting supports. It supports more than 20 programming language such as PHP, HTML, CSS, Javascript, Ruby on rails, Java, C++, C#, ActionScript3, Bash / shell, ColdFusion, Delphi, Diff, Erlang, Groovy, JavaFX, Perl, PowerShell, Python, Ruby, Scala, SQL, Visual Basic, XML etc

Previewer / Mini browser

Well, Previewer actually is a mini browser, plus the view source function which of course will help you to debug your web development codes easily.

Find And Replace Code

A good code editor should have a search and replace functions. And koder has it too.

Additional Keys

Yes, we’ve added some additional keys on iPad virtual keyboard shortcuts to help code typing faster. We even have buttons to move the cursor position, and auto closing bracket which will allow you to insert opening+closing brackets and placing the cursor in the between of them.

Expandable editor space

If you feel the editor field is too small then you can make it wider easily by touching the expanding button on the top section of editor space

Style
Yes we support Theming, you can change the look of the editor space according to your preference. You can change the editor space to a dark theme, changing the font type and also font size.

There are many other features, but it seems it would be better if you prove them by yourself. You can download it from AppStore only for a few bucks

We are committed to continuously develop this app. If you have any ideas, feedback or even a bug, please let us know, at the support and feedback page
