Codea

Codea is a Lua code editor for iOS devices made by Two Lives Left. It is designed for rapidly prototyping visual ideas, especially games and simulations. Finished projects can be exported directly from the app to Xcode. It is closely related to the Processing programming language, using many of the same methods for drawing functions as found in Processing.
