VSCode Android Port

This is an open-source port of Visual Studio Code (VSCode) for Android, providing a fully functional development environment on your mobile device. With this app, you can log in, use remote repositories, SSH, install extensions, run code, and more—all on Android!

Features

  • Login & Authentication: Log into your GitHub or other remote repositories.
  • Remote Repositories: Clone, push, and pull from Git repositories.
  • SSH: Use SSH to access remote servers directly from the app.
  • Extensions: Install and manage VSCode extensions.
  • Run Code: Execute your code right on your Android device, with full support for languages like Python, JavaScript, and more.
  • Full VSCode Functionality: Almost all VSCode features are ported over, so you can work just as you would on a desktop!

How to Build and Install the App

Follow these steps to quickly build and install the app on your Android device. I've included simple copy-paste commands for Debug and Release builds.

Prerequisites

  • Java Development Kit (JDK) version 8 or above
  • Gradle (Gradle version 7.x or higher recommended)
  • Android SDK installed

1. Clone the Repository:

git clone https://github.com/Fundiman/VSCodeAndroid.git cd VSCodeAndroid

2. Install Dependencies (optional but recommended):

If you haven't already, run this to ensure everything is set up: gradle build

3. Build and Install the APK:

For Debug Build (Fastest for testing):

Just copy-paste the following command to build and install the APK for debugging: gradle assembleDebug && adb install app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk

For Release Build (For final production):

If you’re ready for a release build, use this command: gradle assembleRelease && adb install app/build/outputs/apk/release/app-release.apk

Troubleshooting

  • Build Failures: If the build fails due to dependencies, ensure that your gradle.properties and build.gradle files are correct.
  • Device Compatibility: Make sure your device has enough resources (especially RAM) to run VSCode.
