Does anyone have experience working on somewhat large projects in Codea (with dozen tabs and thousands of lines of code)? Is there a way to make it work?
I have discovered that at some point as the project grows Codea editor becomes basically unusable as it just freezes randomly for extended periods of time, up to the point where you spend half the time just waiting for it to unfreeze. I assume this has something to do with autosaving the project (if this is the case, can’t we have an option to only save it manually?)
Has anyone found a way to make large projects work in Codea editor? Any workaround? Will breaking up large project into multiple smaller ones and creating dependencies help?
Is it the number of tabs that’s the main problem? Is it the size of individual tabs? Any suggestion would be highly appreciated!
Codea is such an amazing tool, hands down best app I have on my iPad, such a shame the editor seems to have these limitations - especially given the fact that otherwise Codea appears to handle large projects just fine (oh, if only there was a way to actually code them ).
P.S. I know, Codea was not intended as an environment for large projects, more for quick prototyping - still, it’s such a joy to be able to work on something of a reasonable size on an iPad…
