So basically what this guys says is "golden" and good enough reason to warrant buying the most expensive tablet on the market can be summed up as this: 1. iOS 11 now supports very basic multitasking, years after Android (and Windows mobile, if that counts) 2. iOS 11 has support for keyboard-shortcuts, which (you probably guessed it) Android has had full support for at least since Android 3.0 (and we're now at 8). 3. He does no actual local development and has moved his entire development setup into the cloud, rendering the iPad a mere terminal, and thus it as the base-platform utterly irrelevant. The only one who can call the cost-benefit factor of this as a development setup "good", are the ones already so invested in Apple-stuff that they're blinded to everything else. Especially its inherent limitations, not to mention the obscene cost given the limited offering you get. Really: The cheapest chinese Android-tablet you can find... And no, not one of the cheapest. I mean the utterly cheapest of the cheap Android-tablets you can find... Can do all this. At probably 1/20th the cost. And it can run local chroots and native docker-containers too, so you have full offline support. What's offered as an "amazing" experience here is only amazing if you don't consider cost a factor in what you get to work with. And once you do, it's about as far from amazing as you can possibly get, probably worst in class.
