I'm really curious why would you need a special app to view text? Why browser is not sufficient enough for that use?

Viewing large files such as this one https://github.com/replit/play/blob/master/play/play.py crash my feeble galaxy note8. Viewing the same file on this app does not cause issues so that is one use case I guess?

Seems like that, yeah. But again, I believe your issue is related to some non-optimized content for mobile. Perhaps the thing that crashes is syntax highlighting script, whereas on mobile they have something native. (just a guess..)
