Disappointing
sevennineteen
Just bought this app and am fairly disappointed. The idea of collecting reference materials for all of these languages in a single app is great, but the materials here are just random PDFs cribbed from the internet, not optimized for iPhone viewing at all. The regex screenshot is a bit misleading as makes it look like a single column convenient for thumb-scrolling, which is not the case. Performance-wise, these are slow to download and difficult to zoom. A truly iPhone-optimized programming reference app would be a great thing, but this is just an iPhone wrapper around a set of random documents. Some minor notes: Django begins w/ a "D". I'm not sure how the split between "programming" and "frameworks" was decided, but RoR should be in the same bucket as Django... Ruby is a language; RoR is a framework.
solid and dynamic collection of cheatsheets available here

this app is great, a fairly quick way to get to dozens of handy cheatsheet pdfs. it looks like the minor issues that sevennineteen mentioned with language/framework organization have already been fixed. love the fact that the content is dynamically updated!
What a joke!

Not even optimized for the iPhone. Hard to zoom, hard to use. Might as well use Safari and bookmark these pages.
Great if you have a manifying glass...

A lot of good information but no way to actually read any of it. The documents themselves are written with a very small font and they cannot be zoomed in on, so actually getting cheats from this is very difficult. I can't personally read any of it because of this issue so I'll likely delete it. Like another poster said, you'd probably be better off just finding and bookmarking the information on Safari.
