• Apple must open iPadOS to sideloading within 6 months, EU says

  You can work on it https://blink.sh/ see also https://docs.blink.sh/advanced/code. - Source: Hacker News / 4 days ago

• Apple debuts iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus

  You can already do that with an iPad (sans fat OS). If you're using Blink Shell (https://blink.sh) the external display is independent of what's on the iPad too, which works really neatly. This is the exact setup I used as my main dev machine in a previous role. Would be very nice to see if this works on the new iPhones. A thin client with decent security in your pocket with keyboard/mouse/display at both home and... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Apple iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max

  I use blink[0] with a 40% keyboard to develop linux program on a vps. If you want to do programming without wireless interenet, another option is to connect a raspberry pi zero 2w (with usb gadget mode enabled) to the usb c port using a single usb cable. Then the rpi zero will share a ethernet network with iOS device. Then you can use blink (again) to mosh to raspberrypi.local to do the development on the pi. The... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Buying an iPad Pro for coding was a mistake

  There's also Blink [1] which includes a local shell (limited), ssh and mosh support, and comes with a local-first, but remote-dependent, vscode implementation. Works with vscode.dev, code-server (the coder.com and microsoft version), coder.com etc. Not free but a free TestFlight versions available if you accept to be a beta tester of sorts. I've had moderate success using it, but overall the code-server experience... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Prompt2, heads up; they are readying up another version Prompt2 has been abandoned by devs since iOS 14 / 1y ago in a crashing state - Now they want to make another money-heist cash-grab from its users by forcing them to upgrade one of the most expensive apps of all time.

  If you're okay with a subscription model for a terminal type shell, I would recommend Blink. Does everything Prompt did and more. They have a 1-week trial, and then you can subscribe for $20 a year. Source: 10 months ago

Gitpod mentions (72)

• Effect 3.0

  If you prefer instead to have a look at a fully working & effect-native app we've prepared a demo cli app that you can directly open in Gitpod or locally (if you prefer), you'll need to provide an OpenAI API Key in order to integrate with the OpenAI API. The demo app allows you to train a model via embeddings from a set of files and then allows you to prompt the trained model with questions. - Source: dev.to / 14 days ago

• Ask HN: Is anyone using Cloud Dev Environments (e.g. Codespaces/Replit) at work?

  We use Gitpod (https://gitpod.io/) for our eCommerce Magento development tasks across all of our projects at Develo (https://www.develodesign.co.uk). This gives our support developers instant access to a fully configured development environment across all of our client sites, it really helps speed things up, previously there would be a min of 1-2hrs local setup for a new developer to work on a project, now it's 5... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Develop with CraftCMS + vite + DDEV in Codespaces

  Full support for gitpod.io would be awesome as well in future. - Source: dev.to / 9 months ago

• Software development on a Chromebook

  For a few years I have been aware of on-line development environments such as JSBin, JSFiddle and CodePen. They have spearheaded on-line development and more recently a new breed of on-line resources have become available including CodeSandbox, Stackblitz and Replit. You can even access your GitHub repos directly through an in-browser (web) version of MS Visual Studio Code by pressing the full-stop (try it in one... - Source: dev.to / 11 months ago

• Codespaces but open-source, client-only, and unopinionated

  What are some of the competitors in this space? - Gitpod, a SaaS competitor to Codespaces. http://gitpod.io - Coder, which I guess is the more enterprisey self-hosted Codespaces alternative? https://coder.com - This project, Devpod, seems to be a polished experience but not centralized like Coder. - I recently stumbled upon Recode, which looks like a more indie take on the problem. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
