• Debugger with breakpoints & single-stepping
• Various libraries included
• Autocomplete with search
• Autoformat
• Console with stdout/stderr filtering
• Import projects from external applications
• Project-wide Search and Replace

Under the hood

This project uses LLVM + Clang and the Wasi SDK to provide a compiler toolchain for C & C++ projects. For the WebAssembly runtime it uses WAMR.

Building Tide

iPadOS

Building Tide requires a recent Xcode and QtCreator and prerequisite components built:

./bootstrap.sh

Afterwards you can open the CMake project in QtCreator.

Supporting Tide

Tide IDE is Free and Open Source Software, but support is necessary to keep the project afloat. Instead of jumping through hoops of building the software yourself you can purchase Tide IDE from the App Store.
