I‘m going to try and set up a few basic things for coding on my new iPad.
I‘ve gathered some information previously and got some great advice from some of you in one of my last tweets.
This will mostly be some live thoughts and experiences.

Heard good things about http://ish.app so I installed TestFlight and joined the beta.
Installation went smooth and I now have a terminal on my iPad!

Great. vi on my iPad! 
But nearly my first fail: The Magic Keyboard has no escape key.
I nearly ended up generating very strong passwords, but CTRL + C does the job and ends the different input modes.

You can also use apk to add packages which is pretty awesome.
Installed vim and it works great, pretty happy, works as expected.
Oh, and you can enable darkmode in ish, so I also enabled that.
What I also found out is: RTFM, ish brings an escape key for you.

ish comes with ash instead of bash or zsh.
But I had a great idea I wanted to try out (you can guess from the image)...still need to modify my .ashrc

I can‘t get nvm to work. But I was able to install node and npm and just ran my first node app on my iPad.

I slowly get used to the keyboard.
It’s a little different than what my muscle memory is used to but it’s great.
Touch keyboards and I are usually at war and my girlfriend is the only human being in the world able to understand what I sometimes write and autocorrect makes of it.

So having a real keyboard is actually enabling this experiment.
I would just not be able to code with a touch keyboard otherwise.
Great idea Apple, really!

@codesandbox works as expected.
The screen size is okay for me.
I actually usually work only with the 16” display of my usual MacBook and no external displays, as I actually don’t work at desks a lot.
In the summer I prefer to sit outside, thus I got used to a single display.

http://Repl.it only comes with rust 1.36.0 installed.
The IDE seems nice and I’m able to work with it but to my understanding, updating rust is impossible, which turns me away.
That rust version sadly is seriously too old.

Was suggested trying out goorm in that tweet.
Gonna try that out now, maybe they have an up-to-caste version of rust available or do at least allow me to install my own.

Jumping back to repl after they jumped in this thread in to tell me that this is just a display bug.

Seems a little buggy. Cargo doesn‘t run out of the box.
Setting the user explicitly works and lets me knit a new cargo project.
Hey @replit, do you use docker and forgot to add “-e USER=$USER“?
