    Early in the article: "Obviously, there is no way to develop on an iPad Pro."

    I think I would have titled it, "How I develop with an iPad as my remote desktop interface."

    * That said, I appreciate the effort that went into trying this out and writing about it.

    TL;DR

    - Ulysses--write blog posts

    - Paper (former Paper53) drawings

    - Blink--terminal

    - Dash--API Document viewer

    - Things--To do manager

    So all the actual development is done remotely using a terminal. I could use a cheap Android tablet for that. I was hoping for software that uses more of what the hardware is capable of.
