p5.js for iOS

Hey there! This repository is the main code for my p5.js ios app. Feel free to list any issues or contribute. There is room for a lot of improvement. If you find a bug please only file an issue. I will add it to the list below if nessecary.

I noticed there are quite some people that prefer an iPad over a laptop because of its mobility and I find myself wanting to just quickly code some idea on my iPhone as well. Sadly there wasn't a good native p5.js (or even javascript) app available and the online p5 editor on p5js.org doesn't really work that well on mobile devices.

I don't know if anyone will ever bother looking at this code, but please keep in mind I am not a proffesional app creator and I therefore don't really know how things are 'suppost' to be done but rather I know how to do things in a way that they'll work.

Keyboard accessory view misalignment

First off, thanks for making this app! I’ve really been enjoying using it the last couple weeks.

Now, for the bug report:

The keyboard acccesory view is misaligned on the iPhone X. Screenshot below.

console

a console for debugging would be nice

Change "Run Code" button to a toggle to also "Stop"

First, thanks for creating this. It's really easy to use! But I've been killing my battery because I can't find a way to stop execution once it's started. The only way I've been able to stop my code from running is to insert a syntax error and re-run, or to kill the app.

If there is a way you could stop execution and make the "Run Code" button toggle to "Stop" once it's executing, that would be great.
