All of that can be done in a remote VM. I use Coda + Shelly on an iPad pro and it's a pretty decent development experience. The real barrier is for (non-web) GUI development.
- alexktz 8y agoRemote VM is an interesting idea, what about mouse support?
- setr 8y agoout of that entire list, the only thing that called for a mouse was atom maybe we're returning to the age of terminal-only development ;) but with vector font rendering!
- pmontra 8y agoActually there were terminals with vector fonts in the '60s https://www.cca.org/vector/ https://www.cca.org/vector/
- mensetmanusman 8y agoYou can use swiftpoint on the jump desktop app (that is my setup), it’s highly portable. Don’t get the apple ipad keyboard though, no escape key...
- avcdsuia 8y agoWhat's the point of having an A12X chip while running everything remotely?
- ricardobeat 8y agoThe UI is absolutely smooth unlike any laptop! Coda has a local server/browser pair you can use for simpler things. But usually the kind of web work I'm doing barely exercises a single core, it all runs on a $2.50/month VM.
