Desktop App
IDX Desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux), either:
- Electron / Tauri wrapper
- Or React Native desktop app
For better avoidance of browser keyboard shortcuts / better native + OS integration
I'm a big supporter of web standards, but running an editor in a browser tab or even as a desktop PWA is often lacking / janky (judging based on the VS Code editor on github.dev)
Alternative Considered: PWA
If you manage to achieve parity by fixing the UX problems and integrating natively, making it work without downsides, I'll be on board with running IDX as a PWA!

Public HTTP frontend and backend previews
Its very hard to give access to one person at a time to look at a frontend project, so instead of doing all that, why not add a "make app public" option? so that other people can access it and I can easily preview my next js apps with a simple command: 'npm run dev' and then share the localhost link to others to show them previews

Mobile optimization
To enhance the user experience on mobile devices, the "Full Screen" feature in the "Customize Layout" settings in IDX should be automatically enabled. This setting ensures that the editor screen adjusts to fit various mobile screen sizes when enabled.

improve onboarding when importing repo
When importing a repo, the placeholder text (never a good way to convey meaningful information) shows a sample url without the protocol: github.com/my-org/my-repo
However, when trying to enter a repo url matching that example, the UI simply says "Invalid repo URL format" which is frustrating for the user because they're following the example provided
It turns out, users need to add the protocol (https://) and then it will work. As a very early step in onboarding a repo to IDX, this can lead to frustration.
Solution:
1. update placeholder text to include protocol
2. update error message to provide a…3 votes -

Browser's history integration
Allow for the Back and Next button on your browser to navigate through your IDE's file history... like in the desktop version of VS Code. A lot of times, just by muscle memory I have pressed the back button and accidentaly reloaded the whole IDE.

IDX UI templates
IDX is very nice and well built. Are the themes and components that IDX use available for use in applications?
It would be nice to have a designer to drag and drop Angular components from a palette and have it automagically generate the components. It would also make sense to allow us to use our own components in the palette.
Also along these lines, it would be nice if such a designer would allow you to connect @Input and @Output between elements and other services through an interface resembling a "patchbay" in the audio recording software world. So you could…

A Watery, or Electric Storm Background Theme
As the current trend for dark Theme has really taken off, except with a lot of YouTubers apparently. I thought a moving background would be an amazing next generation move. There's been not much custom control generated, and like in a browser one can have some pretty cool backgrounds, or with 3-D graphs and such. I, for one, would enjoy a pleasant small ripple/wave effect, if nothing more than to help the aesthetic, I believe it would also be relaxing and somewhat soothing.

Support Multiple Projects/Folders
You may have separate projects (with their own build process, etc.) that you still want to see and control from inside the same workspace. This type of project structure is one we want to better support.
78 votesWe are actively discussing how to best address this. Stay tuned for some updates here.
In the interim, please comment on what kind of project(s) you are working in what other tools you have found that do a good job here.

Make workspace limit error actionable
If I have 5 workspaces and I attempt to create another one, I get the following error:
IDX currently has a per-user workspace limit. Please delete one or more workspaces before continuing...
I cannot fix this error on this page. I have to manually navigate to idx.google.com to see my workspaces and delete them.
I would consider the following improvements:
- Add a link to this error that takes you to your workspaces so that you can delete them.
- Show this error earlier. Currently this error is shown when you've filled out the form and pressed the "Create" button. This is…

Keep Edit History on Reload
Ensure that edit history is retained when the network reconnects or the browser reloads. Accidental history loss can hamper development efficiency, so retaining history on reload would greatly improve dev UX.
