We need support for native mobile development for Android and ios
We need support for native mobile development for Android and ios (java, kotlin, Swift, C++)
269 votesAs many of you may have seen from our I/O Connect announcements, we are actively working on having Android Studio work on IDX. Here is a teaser video: https://x.com/kirupa/status/1813693281039212735
Please join the waitlist to be among the first to try out this experience once we make it available for early testing: https://idx.google.com/android-studio

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!

Support jupyter notebooks and GPU computation
Adding support for jupyter notebooks and access to GPUs will enable deep learning and AI related developments much more easier in project idx. While Google colab and kaggle provides this, they lack a good IDE and other features. Also you can look lightning.ai studios for inspiration.

React Native implementation
It would be good to implement templates since it is another alternative to flutter. It would also be good to implement .idx/dev.nix to be automatically loaded when cloning a git repository
210 votesWe have an experimental version of this in IDX now. You access it via the Mobile category or going directly to here: https://idx.google.com/new/react-native

Request for Flutter Support with iOS Simulator in IDX
Please include support for the iOS simulator within IDX for Flutter projects. This addition would greatly simplify the process of testing and debugging iOS apps directly within IDX, eliminating the need for external tools or complex setups. If iOS support is disabled, kindly provide a reason for the decision. Thank you for considering this request.

Working together
I think it would be so much better if we can see who is online in the project, where is their cursor, and what are their working in. Like in google docs. So we can collaborating making a project simulteneously. No need to worry about the commit and conflict.

Local file system access
Introduce the capability to browse and open local filesystem directories, as available in vscode.dev, where users can open directories and not just individual files, directly from the browser interface.
Current behavior in vscode.dev: Users can interact with the local filesystem through the browser, opening folders and files as if working locally, without uploading content to the server, which effectively bridges local and cloud development environments.
Impact: Implementing this would reduce context-switching and improve user experience by providing a seamless development workflow that integrates local and cloud-based resources.
Technical Suggestion: Adopt a File System Access API strategy to enable secure and…

Raise the number of workspaces limit
Hey Project IDX team,
I don't want to have a limit of 2 workspaces in project IDX. Can you lift the limit of two workspaces to maybe 50-100? I want to draft a lot of flutter, angular, and react projects in project IDX. Thanks.

Automatic intelligent code checking
Automatic intelligent code checking. On the example of Quokka (plugin for VSCode) only that it would be interactive and automatically prompt you. For example, if you have an error in some place, it will highlight it and can solve it yourself or will describe why it happens.

Can we have the Live Share Extension on IDX
I've been teaching students using IDX these days, more or less for fun and also to test how well the IDX AI performs w.r.t React.js. A feature that I use sometimes on the local machine is Live Share extension.
A brief description of the extension -
The Live Share Extension on VSCode enables other dev to work on the same instance of VSCode on multiple files, which is extremely useful when creating small scale projects.
I understand that it is developed by a different company (Microsoft) but it will be helpful specifically for teaching purposes.
There can be an alternative…104 votes -

Request to Add Python Selenium Web Automation Project Template
I have a suggestion for a new feature: adding a Python Selenium template for web automation projects. This would greatly benefit users who frequently work with Selenium for web automation tasks and enhance the platform's utility for a wider range of users.

Would like Project IDX workspace to show edit history with character by character edits.
We will be using Project IDX to have students code websites. We used a previous website that we can no longer use. It was helpful to show the edit history so we could help students find their errors.
The character by character edit history was also helpful for us to detect plagiarism and see when they were just copying and pasting a peer's code which happened and we were able to address it before it continued on to other projects.

We need support for CordovaJS
Dear Google Project IDX Team,
I would like to provide feedback on the current template options available in the platform. Specifically, we need support for CordovaJS. Including a template for CordovaJS would greatly benefit developers who use Google Project IDX for hybrid mobile application development.
CordovaJS is a widely used framework for building mobile applications with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Support for CordovaJS in Project IDX would streamline the development process, allowing us to leverage the powerful capabilities of this framework directly within your platform.
Thank you for considering this request. Your support in enhancing the template options will be…
