Of course, I was being stereotypical, but it's interesting to hear your experience! Have you considered a web IDE? Like Cloud9, Nitrous.io, etc?

- vessenes 11y agoI own almost all the ssh clients for iOS, and occasionally use cloud9. The browser isn't performant enough to really feel good coding in c9, and I prefer vi keybindings, so it's a no go for me. I'm really pretty happy with ssh and vi, although there is no ssh client with mosh support extant. And getting something like solarized into your ios ssh terminal is pretty painful. I would expect at some point this year, an enterprising ssh on iOS developer will get all that sorted with high res fonts, though. The combo is pretty compelling. My typical setup is tmux on ssh on the main pane of the ipad and the right hand window has slack or a browser or messaging, depending. It's great, very low distraction, really a nice setup.
- mark_l_watson 11y agoI use nitrous.io. The web based IDE works great on a Chromebook but not so great on my iPad Pro. I expect improved support. One option is to use the web based IDE for editing and have a separate SSH+terminal app open to a nitrous.io account. You can swipe between apps in a second for editing or command line stuff. That said, it is more convenient working all in emacs with SSH. It is important to use a SSH app that has a reasonable virtual keyboard.
