Hi! Great Video! A question...how can I activate the developer mode on an iPad Pro?

[stephenrector]

I am looking into purchasing this so that I can code on my iPad when I am not in my computer. I have a Brydge+ keyboard on my 11" IPad Pro. I just want to confirm that in your setup, the trackpad and keyboard are connected to the iPad and not the Mac? I would be using this in headless mode with my Mac in the other room and just have my iPad/Brydge Keyboard w/ built in trackpad in the other room. If that works. This would be awesome. Also, is it full screen on the iPad? (Full resolution) I use Jump Desktop now and it's close to full resolution but there is still some black bars.

its nice...but this is not "native" right? besides...i still need to purchase a macbook if i dont already have 1.

Great video. Excellent walk-thru. Unfortunately, I just want to use one device (preferably iPad Pro w/M2). Everyone is saying give up. Apple will not bring MacOS to iPad Pro (even with M1/M2). I understand why from a marketing and sales perspective, but disappointed from a technical perspective. There will be few computing devices in late 2022 that will have (at such a small footprint) the capability of the M2 and yet the iPad Pro is handcuffed so dramatically for marketing and sales reasons. It's like selling a Ducati with mountain bike wheels.

there is only Xcode.Does jet brains do work with Luna? the Luna shows a picture without freezes, doesn’t it?

Why would I wanna code on my iPad if I already have a Mac 😂

[MarcoDotIO]

A lot of people are saying that this tutorial isn’t really needed. However replace the MacBook Pro with a Mac Mini (And a portable AC battery), and you have yourself a pretty powerful, portable two in one device

I’m going to try this out with Sidecar once my new wireless keyboard arrives. Is your keyboard and mouse connected to the iPad or Mac?

[АрсланГаджиев-жж]

please tell me you can fully program on it in swift ipad pro 12.9 m1 2021, create full-fledged large applications for iOS ??? Is there enough power and performance for these tasks? How much does the battery hold with a full daytime use it in programming? and where did you buy the ipad stand ????

[abhisekhroy]

Thank You so much for your Awesome Solution!😃😃 And can please say the name of the song that you used in the very beginning of the video?😄😄😄

Hi Ryan. Thank you for these great videos! I know you tried Sidecar but have you had a chance to compare Luna’s performance to other apps that offer remote control of the Mac from the iPad – e.g. Jump Desktop or Screens which use VNC/RDP/Fluid/etc.? I’ve personally used Jump Desktop and it works but I’m wondering if Luna would be even better performance or high quality text graphics.

Could you tell me please, can i install Xcode just on iPad for review code/some projects anywhere? thank you

[fvgoya]

By the way, what is the aspect ratio of your camera??? It's so cool you able to show you and the window with the code side by side.

Is your keyboard connected to the iPad or mac?

[dracula]

@Reality School What keyboard and mouse are you using? Are the keyboard and mouse connected to the iPad ? (…or to the Mac?)

[ShayaanAzeem]

Is this a Re Upload? I don’t know why but I have watched this before!

[marccram]

why don't you just use Sidecar ???

[richardwalters]

Just ordered this ... going to give it a try !

[richpo]

Good Video. Can you do a video on Black Screens on Storyboard launch for IOS 14. It’s a huge problem in Xcode.
