May release(3.7) of Phoenix Code is now available.

This month's release is all about Live previews and the little things that make your work just a bit easier. We've also addressed numerous feature requests and UX bug reports, along with improving app UX and stability.

Live CSS Class and Style Code Hints

Interactively edit CSS styles and classes using the up/down arrow keys in code hints. This provides an instant boost to your HTML and CSS workflows.

CSS/HTML Code Hints improvements

Improved relevance of suggestions in CSS and HTML code hints. For E.g., typing b in a CSS file will prioritize background-color. Typing between will bring up relevant CSS property-value combinations like align-content: space-between; (see image below), so you don't have to remember which value is under which CSS property.

Move to trash/bin when deleting files

Deleting files from the files panel in desktop apps will move the file/folder to trash/recycle bin instead of permanently deleting it.

UX Improvements

  • Deleting the Phoenix Code folder in user Documents directory is now supported in desktop apps.
  • Increased stability and app startup experience.
  • Copy Error Message button is now available in the problems panel.

Introducing Phoenix Code Desktop- Now on Windows, Mac & Linux 🎉

We're thrilled to share a huge update with you all today - Phoenix Code native apps are officially here! 🎉 . Get your copy from phcode.io !

We have been working hard over the last several months to make native apps possible. It took a lot of effort and perseverance with our limited resources to reach this far. We hope to have your support in doing more :)

With this update, Phoenix Code can now run almost anywhere! Native apps are available for Windows, Mac and most Linux distributions. For Chrome-OS and other platforms, simply use the web browser version; no install needed.

Looking Ahead

Our guiding principle is to make coding as intuitive and fun as playing a video game - for web developers, designers, and students.

With the native apps now available, we're starting the next phase of our journey. Beginning this month, there will be
a new update of Phoenix Code released every month.

However, our ambitions come with costs, and it's your support that makes all the difference.

How You Can Support:

We're grateful for the incredible support this community has shown us so far. Let's continue to make Phoenix Code even better, together.

With gratitude,

The Phoenix Team
