Coding on mobile Android device.

~~~ in order to write HTML on an Android device you will need to go to Google Play Station in download a text editor called

Anwriter

 

if you are working from a mobile tablet on Android platform you will actually have the best of both worlds a large screen and keyboard you can typeif you  as well as a very easy Text Editor to use you will be able to view your documents directly from the text editor whereas people on laptop and desktop will have to view their web page development through their browser before they can upload it which is much more time consuming

You can of course use Anwriter on your Droid cell phone however it is very hard on the eyes to be doing programming from such a small screen… However this is the way that I do it
