It should be possible to develop a ~~Rails~~ iOS app using GitLab on an iPad (Q1-2019) https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/Product/issues/45 ### Further details The primary usability problem relates to keyboards because iOS Safari does a terrible job of passing the key events through which is well documented in various issue trackers, but is most fundamentally obstructed by Apple itself. The other class of issues broadly touch interface issues. ### Proposal **Plan A: Implement mobile support in Monaco** > The Monaco editor is not supported in mobile browsers or mobile web frameworks. ([source](https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/)) We could implement mobile support ourselves: - Implement keyboard support work around similar to those described by https://dev.to/aadsm/extending-glitch-2fe1 - Improve touch interface support, primarily of Monaco **Plan B: Use a different text editor** - Evaluate alternatives, that have better mobile support, and provide a better foundation for desktop IDE replacement like Theia (which was not mature enough when we first started developing the Web IDE)
