It's "possible" to code now with GitHub Codespaces, which leverages VS Code for Web and has pretty good usability on the iPad, and there are a few less-conveinent ways to run the VS Code Web interface hosted on your own computer (e.g. Blink Shell: https://docs.blink.sh/advanced/code https://docs.blink.sh/advanced/code )
- DennisAleynikov 3y agoby this definition a chromebook is an excellent programming machine
- minimaxir 3y agoYes? It's 2023, not all code has to be run locally.
- DennisAleynikov 3y agoI think you may be missing the point of the criticism. its obvious that remotely editing code is possible, but why would you spend so much money on something that is basically a remote desktop machine? couldn't you use a much cheaper device for the same purpose
- devoutsalsa 3y agoThere's so many services to work on now, I couldn't get all our software to run on my laptop if I wanted to.
- Robotbeat 3y agoThat sounds like a bad idea.
- oynqr 3y agoI mean, you can run actual Linux applications on those. Only limit is gonna be the mostly crappy hardware. Although I guess that could be to the benefit of everyone actually using your software.
- DennisAleynikov 3y agoyeah I actually use the Lenovo Duet 5, its an excellent arm64 chromebook with with some of the best battery life I've ever had on a "laptop" (its a tablet hybrid)
