More About Blink Shell, Build & Code
The Blink Build is a new application that allows users to access cloud development environments on-demand. These environments are powered by containers, making it possible for users to code, compile, and deploy from anywhere. The latest version, Blink+, also includes Blink Code, an integration with Microsoft Visual Studio Code. This allows users to code on both local and remote projects, all while experiencing the premium Blink experience. This includes never being disconnected thanks to Mosh, SSH with tunnels, keys, and agent, and a blazing fast terminal.
The Blink community has been raving about the application, with programminglife.io stating that it is "the way to use VS Code on the iPad." TheVerge also praises the app, saying "In some ways, I prefer my iPad / Blink / Digital Ocean setup to coding on my Mac." Twit.tv calls it "The One" among other iOS terminals, and The Sweet Setup notes that connections still come up even after a weekend off.
Users love many features of Blink Shell, including Mosh connections that survive device reboots, the most complete SSH implementation on iOS, the Code command for VS Code integration, blazingly fast terminal and SFTP transfers, and the inclusion of Pragmata Pro with ligatures.
Blink Code integrates seamlessly with VS Code, allowing users to code on both local and remote projects. It also offers a fully-loaded code editor and a coding experience tailored to the user's device. This integration works with VS Code for web, GitHub Codespaces, GitPod, or the user's own VS Code server.
Blink Shell also offers a fully loaded SSH toolset, including support for various types of keys, certificates, and port forwarding with local, remote, and dynamic tunnel support. It also has a SOCKS5 proxy for a private VPN, agent forwarding, complete SSH Config file support, and more. Additionally, it offers features such as external display support, legendary hardware keyboard support, and the ability to sync hosts over iCloud.
Blink is open source software, and the community is encouraged to participate and provide feedback and feature requests. The application can be accessed through the website, Twitter, and GitHub. The Terms of Use and Privacy Policy can also be found on the website. Please note that Blink Code is not affiliated with Microsoft. Enjoy the many features and benefits of Blink Shell!
