SilverEdit One of the most unique web designer tool for Android devices, SilverEdit allows you to create, edit and preview your web pages either offline or online. You can manage, upload and download various files using FTP, since it supports most of the web type documents. Also, you get the option to save your documents in your preferred file format. touchqode View and edit your source code anywhere, anytime using the ‘touchqode’ app. It is a mobile code editor which comes with a number of features such as syntax highlighting, autocomplete and other such useful options.
