How can I code an iOS app while on my iPhone without a pc

Is it possible for me to develop and iOS app on my phone? I wanna either code an app off my iPhone 5 or just make my website into an app. Is there somewhere I can go to do this or is it not possible?
You can only programming on Xcode. And if you want to make your website into an app, you can use WKWebView. You can build a wkwebview with a url, then your app would just like a browser. And you can what you want in the website.
It is not possible to make an app from your iPhone 5. You can only create iPhone apps with a native programming language using Xcode. But, you can convert your website to an app using an application like PhoneGap, or you could use a JavaScript library like Electron.js.

Are custom url schemes different for tvos apps on Apple TV vs. iOS apps (netflix, youtube, hbogo)?

I am working on an apple tv app where I am trying to deeplink to specific pages within other third party apps. I see the way to open the other app is to use its url scheme however most url schemes that work in ios are not working on tvos.
So far, I've found a couple that work on tvos (netflix, abc). However the following url schemes which work on ios are not opening the app on tvos - Youtube (youtube://), showtime anytime (shoany://), DailyMotion (dailymotion//). In some cases the url scheme opens the app but the full deeplink doesn't navigate to the correct page (ex. hbogo).
Do anyone know if the url schemes used by tvos apps is different from ios? Also is there any way to extract the url scheme of the tvos version of the app?
Not sure if you already found your answer but for the sake if visibility:
right now showtime uses different urlschemes for their tvOS apps than the one they use on iOS. The urlschemes used are:
com.showtime://
com.showtimeanytime://
I expect them to change these to be the same as the iOS apps so make sure to be able to support both varieties.

Polymer on Cordova built iOS and Android apps

Is Polymer compatible with the iOS Safari and Chrome Browsers, and the web view that Cordova uses?
As I think to build an HTML5 mobile app with Cordova, I am in look for a gui framework. Polymer seems powerful. I am just in doubt that it works in iOS since there are some github issues and SO questions about that.
Does Polymer works in Cordova built mobile apps for iOS and Android without issues?
I'm currently working on an app that is built entirely on polymer. I don't use any of the common elements. All elements are custom and built by our team. At first there were some gotchas but it works great on iOS8+.
I'm not sure about iOS, but I can say it works well in Android using Cordova.
I've used Polymer components in Ionic Framework apps, that uses Cordova to generate the mobile apps. I'm not an iOS developer, so I've only generated Android apps, and they worked well in all the devices where I tested it (mostly Android 4.2+).
Yeah, you can use Cordova with Polymer, but when the device isn't an Android you need load the WebComponents-Lite.
If you want, I have a seed that should help you, it's an Cordova-Angular-Polymer Seed (but it isn't an Ionic Framework Seed):

Why CEF app is not rendering Polymer UI?

I have developed a web application using Polymer and packaging it as a CEF App. When I launch the application, I only get a blank screen while same application in browser is rendered properly.
I'm using CefSharp (V- 1.19.0.41824) to embed a webView control in my winform application. Below is the code that I'm using for displaying web content in webView -
webView = new WebView();
webView.Load("http://localhost:8000/sampleApp/")
Any pointer will be very useful.
If the current core chrome version used by CEF is lower than 36, then you'll need to enable the experimental flags to allow the web components features.
I don't know how you would enable those flags in your project, but I do know that web components and html link/includes where only made mainstream in the browser core from chrome 36 onwards.
