Introducing Blink Code! Best way to run VS Code on iPad

With Blink code you can edit local, remote and git projects from Blink Shell.
1. An improved Code experience, with edge to edge window support, improved touches and extensions.
2. Keyboard support (HW and SW), the Blink way.
3. Bring Your Own Code. Connect Blink code to any code server instance, like GitPod or GitHub Codespaces.

This is awesome! I already loved blink, no idea it had these extra features! Will it be possible to use the blink shell in the ‘terminal’ window in vscode in the future?

sad I can't use this app bc iOS 15 only, but some of these features I'd kill for

Just so I understand this, this function can only edit local files? Can it edit files on a remote server?

Blink is awesome when I need to code from iPad, and “code” makes it even better. When running “code” in the blink window on external monitor and mouse connected, the mouse cursor stays on the iPad and I’m not able to move cursor to external monitor where the “code” window is running. Wonder if there’s a fix for that?

So, there's software that I need to run on my server besides the SSH daemon?
How viable it is for me to use my Android with Termux as a server for Blink to code on? This looks awesome.

Any chance that you will also make an Android version?

Silly question - how do I exit the VS Code experience to get back to the blink shell?

[cryrivers]

only through SSH right, impossible to have a local shell with local VSCode?

If someone used this in my shop, they'd be looking for another job within the week.
