Other niceties built into Coda 2 include an integrated version of the WebKit Web Inspector, along with the ability to view the fully rendered HTML source of a previewed page. And the inline CSS editor, which combines the flexibility of hand-coded CSS with the power of contextual visual editing options, is remarkable. A new integrated MySQL editor is fairly barebones, but it makes quick work of browsing or modifying tables and running queries. There’s a fully integrated file browser-basically a complete embedding of Panic’s Transmit-which allows you to connect to and browse FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, and Amazon S3 servers. Original Coda users may need to unlearn some tics they developed for working around weaknesses in the original version, since Coda 2 generally behaves far more sanely when composing and editing code.Ĭoda 2’s MySQL editor is spartan, but it gets the job done.Ĭoda 2 integrates other new features as well. Bracketing, closing tags, and indentation all work much more naturally. General coding is improved in Coda 2, too. And you can unfold blocks by clicking on them or with a menu command or keyboard shortcut.

The code folding is particularly powerful you can fold individual blocks, all blocks at a specific level, all comment blocks, and so on. Currently, that custom autocompletion only works on a per-file basis, so functions you defined elsewhere won’t autocomplete a Panic representative says that site-wide autocompletion will come eventually.Ĭoda 2 also now supports code folding, which lets you tuck away sections of code that take up valuable screen real estate, but that you don’t need constant visibility into. It (finally!) supports autocompletion for custom variables and function names. Beyond the aesthetic improvements, like better default syntax colors, the app is now functionally better at helping you write clean code faster. One of the key places Coda 2 really shines is in its upgraded code editor. Among the options the sidebar offers quick access to are Validate, Publish, Source Control Management, Places, and Hints.Ĭoda 2 can autocomplete your custom functions, and it supports code-folding for easier reading. If you prefer, you can make the tabs text only, which works fine, but the visual tab thumbnails actually make a much better use of space and feel far quicker to navigate.Īnother immediately obvious change is the redesigned sidebar, which still offers quick access to local or remote files, clips, and in-page elements, but adds numerous other options-including the ability to configure which of those options are always visible in the toolbar header. The app now uses a very cleverly implemented, resizable, visual tab bar: Your open tabs each get dynamic thumbnails and text labels, along with small identifiers that indicate file extensions when appropriate.
When you start working on site, original Coda users will very quickly spot some obvious differences. The app started using my old Coda sites seamlessly.
Coda 2 adds the bulk of the features I’ve craved, and also adds impressive layers of visual and functional polish.ĭon’t be surprised if Coda 2’s visual tab previews become a de facto OS X standard.Ĭoda 2 lets you organize the different projects you work on as sites. Because as much as I liked the original Coda, I didn’t love it: It was missing a couple key features, and I longed for some of those features literally every time I used the app.
Coda 2 app store mac#
Update: Daniel Jalkut points out that Apple awarded Coda “Best of Mac App Store” in 2012 and an Apple Design Award (for which only App Store apps are now eligible) last year.When Panic formally announced Coda 2, I was thrilled. But it’s pretty damning for the Mac App Store (and the sandboxing requirement in particular) that a top-tier developer like Panic has to pull an app like Coda.
Coda 2 app store upgrade#
Coda users who bought through the Mac App Store can upgrade to version 2.5 free of charge, and Panic has created their own (free) sync service to stand in for iCloud.
Please note that this doesn’t mean Coda 2.5 was rejected byĪpple, rather that we’re going ahead and proactively making thisĬall since all Mac App Store apps are required to be sandboxed and In short: Coda 2.5 will not be sandboxed, and therefore will not Getting Coda 2.5 out the door and in the hands of you, our veryĮager and patient customers, we’ve decided it’s time to move But, we’re stillĮncountering sandboxing challenges.
