- (2023-09-27) Hidayatul Ummah: ok
- (2023-08-28) Bruce Scherzinger: Way better than a monochrome basic text editor. It may have shortcomings, but just started using it and I don't see any yet.
- (2023-08-24) DRB KD: it was okay at first; but trying to close the current opened tab, closes the whole thing; if you forgot to save, well whoopsie, bye bye data. Ctrl-N to create a new file? nuh-uh, this creates a new chrometab; if this is made for chromeOS it should work properly. Hold on, for some reason the Ctrl-N works now? oh great! it has a canvas for JS; can't I have freedom to choose which one would default or nothing at all? I have to click 'Create New' and then scroll down to 'Plain text' if I want to use it; or python, which is very very annoying. Should not have defaulted the app to have js everytime you create a new one. Start with plain text and then just have the highlight formatting after the extension of the file has been allocated. Oh now I have a few JS template files open, dang it! Lemme just close them except for my opened filled in plain text (Ctrl-W) .. whoops all gone.
- (2023-08-20) Andy Saputra: nice

I will be forever grateful for this application . thank you.

- (2022-08-13) Sylver Peralta: Very Nice
- (2022-08-11) Scott Tribbey: A very nice web-app editor for use in Chrome. My only issue with it is that every time it launches it displays a pointless little JS file which means I need to launch another window for plain text, C or whatever and close the pointless example. I really wish there was a setting to disable that AND a setting to set the default editor mode - plain text, C, java, etc.
- (2022-08-07) Markus Bachmann: works fine
- (2022-08-01) Dev Anand: good
- (2022-07-15) jui: I will give this app a 5 star.

- (2022-06-29) Pratiksha Chavda: awesome
