I tried coding on my iPad for 7 days

Ғылым және технология

Using an iPad as my primary device for coding wasn't something I thought possible until I tried it. There are a number of different ways you can use a tablet as a software development device, including things like coding apps and remote desktop.
Since I have a computer, laptop and tablet for website development, I found coding and swapping devices sort of difficult especially with the fact that most environments require me to sync github in order to get back to coding my so important HTML, CSS and JS.
So picking one device to use only, the iPad meant I tried to test out different methods for programming, and I enjoyed remote desktop the most. I technically could use a single environment with all the benefits of a super computer, but on an iPad. I used JumpDesktop to do this as teamviewer wasn't as effective.

    Apart from being a fantastic tool for artists, the iPad Pros feel like a tool for a job already fixed with laptops. Apple keeps forcing you to use their iOS products how they want. Hardware isn't the issue, the OS continues to be the limiting factor. You defiantly have to do more workarounds to get a job done, which begs the question - why not just use a laptop? iPads are still a consumption product first.

    What I like about the iPad Pro is how light and portable it is. The battery life is great, but it varies on what you’re doing. The OS isn’t that bad, but yeah it’s limiting. It reminds me of Windows with their tablets, on how they look and acted like a regular Windows 8 OS, but when it came to installing software you could only get them through their windows store as “apps” which felt very dumb. But also give it time, its evolving. The iPad in its beginning made no sense and memes pour out about “hey I got my new iPad (ipod/iphone) 20 with its huge 2x1 feet screen”. Yet, it only made sense to use it to watch movies and browse the internet or even look up news. Now it can easily be used as a more compact laptop, the storage isn’t bad due to how things are more compressed. I can have Microsoft office and take less than 500MB on the iPad while it would take around 4GB average on a PC. In the long run you conserve more memory on an iPad than having to pay more money for storage on a iMac. It all depends on your needs honestly. And your budget

    I also tried a few things to do coding on an iPad. Coder , Remote login etc. As you said, without a keyboard and touchpad, you can't do anything productive. So the device to go is still my 12 inch Macbook from 2015. It is even lighter than the iPad with keyboard. My development environment is on a linux virtual machine and I make a backup of the image every evening. Takes only 3 minutes with an ssd. When I wan't to do some coding or support on the road, I copy the image to the 12inch Macbook and have the complete environment as I left it. The Macbook can handle the virtual machine with no problem. Lots of advantages. I have two backups (SSD and 12inch Macbook). The Macbook can easily sit on the lap while working and is a complete MacOS device. I will think about the iPad again when Apple has something like Lenovo does with the Duet: Tablet mode (iPadOS) when undocked, desktop mode (MacOS) when docked. A keyboard with function keys and ESC-key would be mandatory.

    I think this video does a pretty good job of showing why you shouldn’t code via an iPad. Coding is not a touch-first activity, so for an iPad to perform, at a minimum it has to offer a laptop-like interface, with a keyboard and mouse or trackpad. In other words, you would have to use the iPad as a laptop anyway But the software on an iPad is not code-friendly, so you have to rely on either cloud computing or remote access to another computer. You are basically trying to bypass the iPad’s unsuitable OS and just use the hardware. But we’ve already established that the hardware you’re using is trying to emulate a laptop So now you’re using an iPad without its core hardware feature (the touch screen) in favor of a laptop-like interface, while trying to avoid the software limitations inherent to iPadOS (its lack of support for local coding of any kind) by accessing a computer OS instead. So, what you have is a laptop, except you can’t use it for coding without an internet connection. What a suboptimal situation! Surely it’s smarter to simply buy a cheap, used laptop if you’re going to use it as a glorified dummy terminal anyway? I love the iPad, and I wish things were different, but as it stands, the iPad is a poor choice for coding.

    An iPad purely for programming is silly, even with the benefits like tapping where you want the cursor because you can just get a touch screen laptop. I'm looking into this because I'm really into the note taking aspect and using it for art, but it's too expensive to justify buying it just for that purpose. So I look at it as a replacement for my laptop, but then it isn't really a replacement if I can't program on it. So for me, the ability to remote desktop to my PC is a huge game changer for buying an iPad

    I’d like for you to look into this a bit more, checking how you would do all this without Remote Desktop as the option, otherwise a good video. I might consider a Mac mini for this sort of setup because currently I have a MacBook Pro not always on or an iMac that is always on but is sometimes in use by someone else and from the looks of it, you can’t remote in, use the iMac under one account while a second user is logged in using it from another account. So it seems like you need a dedicated desktop for this sort of setup.

    So technically, you need a computer turned on 24/7 just to use your ipad like a laptop. Solution: Buy a laptop. Personally I think the title was a bit clickbaity considering he knew the outcome and still chose it. Should have been "I tried coding on my ipad and failed" then proceeding on explaining why and then that a realistic solution would just to be- buy a laptop. Also, there's multiple other ways he could have tried before resulting to remote desktop apps. FTP is not really secure either so I wouldn't recommend that but he didn't even try SSHing into a server and figuring out something that way, nor 100s of other apps that could have provided him different functions and maybe solutions. I could easily code on any system using an ipad if it was just for web design, like in this case. SSH into the server, git clone over my vim config files from github and bam.. Done! (configs aren't really needed either) Just need a basic terminal app. I don't own an ipad anymore but from when I did- I'm sure there was an app called Terminus or something which I used to use and its as basic as adding in a new connection to all your servers with a given name, then jobs a good'un. Another thing I would instantly think of would be to run a linux distro on the ipad itself. I'm sure someone has figured out a way to do something similar to the Termux app on android which then he could have installed code-server and used that near enough natively. This is obviously aside from the keyboard issue itself not including f keys and such. If this isn't a solution as I'm not really sure what apps are on the ios store anymore. I'm sure he could have got a raspberry pi that could have been powered through the ipads port or an external power bank then ssh'd into that to do basically the same thing. I'd still class this as not really coding on the ipad, more like coding on the raspberry pi using the ipad as a monitor, but I'd still class it as a better solution than remote desktop. As first of all, you'd need to own a pc in the first place (most people already will) but for viewers who are coming to learn how to code natively on the ipad due to the fact they might not have a pc.. This would just be a bummer for them. The video production and information is good in some sense, but it should have completely been done a different way and looked at all possible solutions first rather than focusing on remote desktop for like 90% of it. Comes across to me that he's had an idea and jumped at the first thing he thought of rather than doing a bit of research just for a video. I don't want to knock the guy because he is making a video for viewers to help them which is a selfless act in itself. By no means am I trying to either. Just the title and the way the video is structured solely focusing on remote desktop is definitely not benefitable to anyone wanting to code on an ipad.

    For you. No point for high performance for you. You’re just not the target audience for this device. All that new features they’ve added, and how Apple advertises it, it is clear that main target audience is creative crowd. Specifically graphic designers/video creators/writers. And even for video creators they promote it as a supplementary device (considering prices on professional video equipment $1099+ for the iPad Pro is nothing). I’m pretty sure no one at Apple thinks about coders as a target audience for iPad Pro. It is weird why people try use it for this purpose. Probably just a nature of programmers…
