Slick! Great job. This reminds me of my ideal dream setup.
You can spend a down payment of a house on a brand new Mac Book Pro, and the second you plugin a second monitor or "Sidecar" to an iPad screen the fan will go insane with all your Electron apps open. Basically unusable for day-to-day use or annoying.
What I really want is in the territory of this demo. Let me just "Maincar" from my iPad (or even iPhone) into a decked out MBP / Mac Mini sitting somewhere in my house in a cool spot where it can be as loud as it needs to be.
The speed of Sidecar is incredible - so I imagine this will work. This way people can stop dealing with MBP hardware and have a slim quiet quasi-touch setup with the beautiful iPad Pro/iPad Magic Keyboard.

- gazelleeatslion 6y agoI would prefer this setup for just being mobile. Using the zen simplicity iPad apps in most cases. Then, I like the idea of tapping into a MBP or Mini for the extra power when you need it like coding. For the Mac Mini idea specifically, I'd go as far as lugging it around with me in my backpack if it had more juice than a MBP and a battery.
