Does everyone codes using sololearn mobile app ?

Or can we code through web ? coding in such a small screen is annoying with no physical keyboard.

First: Code the way you feel comfortable with. :) Answer: It is amazing how handy a smart phone can be. For example, if correctly configured, you can access your company network from outside at any time and use command line interfaces to check on your servers and data bases, to display and edit any scripted code or configuration files. You would do this if you were stuck somewhere without a notebook or PC, and your company called you because you are the only one who knows the system and can fix it. This would be an extreme example where you would try doing serious or big stuff on a mobile. But I wouldn't think that most people enjoy coding in the mobile app. It's handy for trying out code snippets from the course lessons or try out some ideas, but it would be too hard to navigate and enter lengthy code or projects. Only need/eagerness and a lack of alternatives would drive someone to do that. ;)

I code faster on Sololearn playground run from my mobile phone. You would get use to it, just need little practice.

By the way: While those Play Grounds (like in sololearn or w3school) are great for trying out some basic code snippets and would even support more extensive codes, you might want to consider using other tools for developing too. There are some great editors for web development (some commercial ones even offer free licences for students, in case this applies to you.) These offer help with syntax, auto-completion, spotting errors and more. But you ought not to overlook webbrowsers as a tool either. They do not only show you, how your page will look after it was rendered. Modern web browsers also offer code inspectors and more where you can look through and watch your live source code and see the output of console.log() (a Javascript debugging tool). This is most helpful for seeing, how your Javascript has manipulated your source code and what values are stored and what elements are hidden, since you are otherwise only able to see your original source code, not what happend after some Javascript was triggered.
