Lately I’ve been teaching a 5 week crash course in ActionScript 3. The first few classes were pretty basic stuff, so ad libbing the whole thing wasn’t too much of a problem. However, as the students got ready for increasingly advanced stuff I had to come up with increasingly advanced projects, and in order to ensure a smooth flow through the allotted three hours of each session, I inevitably had to start bringing notes.
I loathe having to print out anything and for some reason it feels particularly dumb to print out code. Luckily I found DataCase, a $6.99 iPhone app which easily lets you transfer any file to your phone, and lets you view it right there in the application, so you can quickly swap between files. I know there are several apps that has similar functionality, but DataCase seemed to me to be by far the cream of the crop. I wish TextGuru was a tad less buggy and sluggish as it supports a large number of formats, but until then I’ll be using DataCase whenever I need to bring notes with me for any reason. iTunes link.
