QBJS - Offline Mode

[Dav]

Oh! That one!  I was clicking the symbol in the IDE!  Sorry.  Yes, I did it.  It was added to my iPad screen.  Thanks!

EDIT: seems to be working fine!  This is great.  Will be playing with it….

Awesome!  Let me know if you run into any issues.

No issue om my ipad yet.

Using Firefox 125.0.3 (64-bit) in Linux Mint 21.3. Don't see the icon in my address bar to install it.

Yeah, I mentioned that in my original post.  For some reason Firefox doesn’t support that feature in the desktop version of their browser.

I was able to do the app install from Chrome or Edge on linux.  I was actually using Mint as well.

Looks like Firefox requires an extension to install PWAs: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox...r-firefox/

Interesting, thanks for the extension information @JRace.  Havent tried it yet but will give it a go.  Looks like Ungoogled-chromium in Linux will probably work as well.  Although I’m using the appimage version which creates a temp directory so the QBJS desktop link doesn’t work the 2nd time after the app image is closed.  It does install QBJS.  

Hey @dbox, I bought a Bluetooth keyboard this weekend for my iPad just so I can enjoy coding in QBJS on it.  Working well.  Is there a way to adjust the IDE text size?

Hey @Dav glad to hear it’s working well so far.  You should be able to change the font size by opening the dev link in the original post in a regular safari window.  Then click the “Aa” button in the url bar.  This will allow you to change the zoom level:

   

You might have to refresh the browser for everything to look right.  Once you have the size you want you can launch it from the app link on the home screen and it should remember the zoom settings.

Let me know whether this works for you.  I’ll put in a ticket in GitHub with a feature request to be able to change the IDE font size from the settings.

Thanks dbox. Yeah that makes the letters bigger, but the ide kind of stretches off screen.  No biggie tho, I’m enjoying QBJS as it is anyway. A font resize option would be really cool to have.

EDIT: refreshing the browser fixed the stretch issue.  Thanks!
