Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Pybricks Code tends to be cumbersome to use on Android.

Describe the solution you'd like
There may be a few things we can do without inventing a whole new layout.

Basically, when a view is toggled, maybe we can choose to show only that view and don't rely on sliders.

File menu:
Proposal:

  • When you open it, show file menu full width. Don't show half the code still.
  • When you tap a file to open it, auto-close the file menu.
  • Do the same for new file wizard: auto-close file menu.

Current behavior:

Docs
Proposal:

  • When you toggle the docs, show only the docs (full width) instead of revealing a slider.
