I love the Typescript handbook, but wanted the examples to be "runnable". It turns out that the TypeScript compiler runs pretty fast in the browser for trivial code snippets, so I threw together https://ts.coach (TypeScript handbook with code examples that execute in the browser + instant type checking)

This is neat, but has the same issue of all similar projects: mobile unfriendly editors for snippets editing.

Thank you for the excellent feedback. I had this realization a while back that I'm a mobile user during "consumption" (e.g. browsing HN late at night), but a desktop user for "production" - now I see how it applies to this side project as well. Also, I still need to figure out some React performance issues which make it virtually unusable on pre-2020 machines :(

This comment actually invigorated me to try the site from my phone and improve the experience, so I sincerely thank you for the motivation.

The typescript documentation has the same issue.

I've considered doing a similar project to yours writing or using some mobile friendly editor and hooking it directly into TypeScript's LSP, which can be easily added to a web page, but was never motivated/disciplined enough to push through it.
