Can you elaborate on this workflow? Got me interested. What editor is that? Can iOS Host a server (localhost)?

Can you elaborate on this workflow? Got me interested. What editor is that? Can iOS Host a server (localhost)?

- filleduchaos 8y agoIt would be a rather poor OS indeed if it couldn't host a server.
- tambourine_man 8y agoAFAIK, iOS can't fork(), so… Edit: it obviously can, I mean AppStore Apps aren't allowed to.
- princekolt 8y agoYou don't need to fork to a separate process to run a web server.
- mattkevan 8y agoI wrote my personal website on an iPad Pro. Worked well. I work on it while commuting on the Tube, where an iPad is less ostentatious than a laptop. It’s built with Jekyll, so I pull the latest changes before leaving the house and then push once arriving at work. Netlify runs the build and the changes go live. I use Working Copy for Git plus the built-in editor is okay, IA Writer for Markdown, Autodesk Graphic for vectors and Affinity Photo for images. It’s actually possible to run a full Django dev environment, including localhost in Safari, using Pythonista and StaSH (shell for Pythonista). It’s genuinely amazing what it can do.
- woolvalley 8y agoSo you used a physical keyboard or just tapped on the tablet screen keyboard?
- mattkevan 8y agoBoth. For a long time I used the on-screen keyboard, but recently got a cheap keyboard case.
