best IDE for switch
-
can anyone tell me what a good IDE for the switch is? ideally I'd like one that you can save files on, and one that supports Python, HTML CSS & JavaScript, and C++
-
An ide like that would require actual code execution, which the switch is incapable of
however a server may work if an ide is made for it -
honestly i dont think something like this would be switch-accessible or even exist.
the ide would need code execution, which isnt supported so it needs to run server-side. it would need to save files, which isnt supported so it needs to save server-side. it would need to be web accessible, because the switch doesnt have many built-in coding apps. it would need to have low resource consumption, because the switch browser isnt very powerful. and lastly, it needs to support a variety of languages.
this is a very niche type of ide, if it exists at all, it wouldnt be freeshe/her, 16

We're working on a Switch-compatible IDE still, and you can see the preview of the progress here: https://sailboat2.bdns.dev (This is just the UI only, it doesn't build any files yet). This would be for Javascript and HTML/CSS page editing though, not python. I'm also having trouble getting the Switch to use monospaced fonts in code areas.
That being said, there are some projects to run python via javascript, which could be interesting: https://pyscript.net

i've created a group @VGMoose detitcated to finding resources that work for switch users and we'll be looking too :3 we already found emails for switch users

@VGMoose Wow that's very interesting, please let me know when you have it working! Ngl I'd be fine only being able to code HTML CSS and JS, as of right now I use programiz.com for Python
