yabai

If you're looking for a good OSX window manager, Yabai [1] is excellent. If you're willing and allowed too you can get greater control by disabling SIP. However even with system integrity enabled (which bars access to certain WindowServer APIs - space control, removing shadows, etc) Yabai functions great. It uses a messaging passing API to interface with a local service, so it's completely programmable and can be integrated with something like skhd [2] 1: https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai.

>Once that laptop arrives I'm never touching Adobe software ever again unless there's a way to completely sandbox it. If the ipad versions of illustrator and photoshop have the features you need that's the only way you can avoid all the nagware. I only need to do the occasional edit to a logo or photo so the ipad pro versions are enough and I prefer the pen to a mouse. I've stopped using them on desktop and use https://smallpdf.com for editing and signing pdfs.

PDF Expert

This is an excellent Mac PDF editing tool. I'm not affiliated, just a user. https://pdfexpert.com I was editing pdf drafts from a publisher and just couldn't stand another minute of dealing with Acrobat. Found this, removed all vestiges of Adobe, and haven't looked back. I've used Preview a lot, but it just isn't reliable (for me). Apple seems to muck around with the code every couple of versions and break things. Odd.

iSH

You can get some stuff running on an iPad using iSH [0], but compatibility is iffy. At one point, I tried bringing a RPi4 along with me to act as a mobile dev server (it'd serve an instance of VSCode over ethernet via a USB-C/ethernet adapter on the iPad, and the iPad would share its Wifi connection to the RPi), but it was clunky to bring two devices with me. Nowadays, I use Blink Shell [1] as a mosh terminal to a remote dev server. [0]: https://ish.app.
