Can I run CalcSteel on a mobile phone or tablet?

Using CalcSteel
Yes. CalcSteel works in any modern browser including Safari on iOS, Chrome on Android, and mobile Firefox. The 3D editor uses WebGL and is touch-friendly for panning, rotating and zooming. On phones, the interface adapts to a compact layout: the sidebar collapses, the toolbar stays at the bottom, and the 3D canvas takes the full screen. That said, for serious modeling work we recommend a tablet (iPad, Android 10″+) or a laptop — the larger screen makes it much easier to select nodes, bars and work with panels. Complex projects with hundreds of bars are painful on a phone but still possible.
