Description
"It’s kind of like the Garage Band of coding." – Wired
"Codea for iPad is a super slick way to write and run programs on your iPad." – Gizmodo
Codea lets you create games and simulations — or just about any visual idea you have. Turn your thoughts into interactive creations that make use of iPad features like Multi-Touch and the accelerometer.
We think Codea is the most beautiful code editor you'll use, and it's easy. Codea is designed to let you touch your code. Want to change a color, or an image? Tapping will bring up visual editors that let you choose exactly what you want.
Codea is built on the Lua programming language. A simple, elegant language that doesn't rely too much on symbols — a perfect match for iPad.
Here's how you use it: type your code. Press play to watch it run. Interact with it. Get creative.

What’s New
Version 3.12.3
FIXED
• Last update we introduced dark mode icons. Perhaps things got a little too dark. The renderer had a tendency to greet you with an ominous black screen. We’ve convinced it to show up properly now.
• Sharing an iCloud project was causing the app to crash. Projects should be shared, not crash your hopes and dreams. This has been fixed.
Ratings and Reviews
Joy of coding
This app brings back the joy of coding I felt when programming in Basic as child. I have bought it for my son to teach him programming and so far it works great. It gives a simple API to access all the different input sources of a tablet. The keyboard is intuitive, the help easily accessible.
Great for learning
It really is great for learning and one of the only places where it’s just a black space to type your hearts away.(I do recommend using CHATGPT to help you if your new to coding, but be creative and mess around with ai code and maybe ask em to make a gta copy I did that and it was really fun
Developer Response ,
Thank you for your wonderful review! We’d love to see your GTA copy some time. Hope it’s like the originals — top down
Terrible
Unless your a game maker for many years you will not build a game with this.
