Can I code on it yet?

Just wild to have such an unbelievably powerful piece of hardware that I pretty much only use for youtube and netflix.

You sell a keyboard for it. Let me code on it!

- Swift Playgrounds supports coding, running, and submitting iOS apps to the app store.

- Pythonista is a python IDE for iOS

- iSH Shell is an emulated x86 terminal environment

I still wish they would allow a full dev sandbox on iPad. It can be fully isolated from the root filesystem, I just want to have a terminal, local git repos, and be able to point a text editor at it.

Are you seriously suggesting Pythonista for python development? You can’t even ‘pip install’ with it!

This is not a setup for serious development.

I would recommend avoiding Pythonista myself as it is abandonware but that has been possible for a long time via stash which is still actively developed https://github.com/ywangd/stash

there are a few other python environments that support pip install
