If I could code on an iPad Pro, I’d finally get rid of my MacBook Pro.
I think that’s exactly why apple doesn’t allow this at all...

As a long time iPhone and iPad owner, I find iOS intolerable and it gets worse with every release.
Coding on an iPad would be like trying to prepare a 5 course dinner on a kid's Fisher Price kitchen or building an intricate model with Duplo Lego bricks. Maybe possible, but a terrible experience.
So what am I missing?
I mean, yes, iOS is still by and large a terrible coding environment, there are a host of long-standing complaints I have with other things both large and small, and I don't doubt I could find a few weird little annoying regressions, but I absolutely wouldn't want to run an earlier version of iOS on my iPad.
And then there are several annoying bugs they don't fix, like having to reboot my phone after tethering my laptop (a Macbook) before I can tether again.
Same look feel etc. maybe with some touch gestures if it works well
from all the marketing for the latest ipad, i think they’re moving more towards this vision, from the ipad page:
“Like a computer...” “A12X Bionic is the smartest, most powerful chip we’ve ever made. It has the Neural Engine, which runs five trillion operations per second and enables advanced machine learning. Translation: It’s faster than most PC laptops.“ “It’s all new, all screen, and all powerful. Completely redesigned and packed with our most advanced technology, it will make you rethink what iPad is capable of. And what a computer is capable of.”
either their marketing team doesnt know about this breed of developers that need to compile software and are just trying to get the masses to replace their laptops or they know about us and are looking to truly replace the macbook pro with ipad.
