I had a similar idea when apple vision pro came out, to be able to code while laying on a couch or bed fully relaxed, but never got to doing it. Neat!

> code while laying on a couch or bed fully relaxed

I wanted this so much I started programming on my phone with Termux. Yes, on a touch screen.

I wrote an entire graphical Go-game tree based editor in Lisp, with a stylus on PalmPilot. I considered it an artistic expression.

I wrote my own lisp interpreter in C inside Termux. My language might be the first to be born inside a smartphone.

> with a stylus

Respect.

I code this way using the Rayneo Air 3S Pro. Feels like I accomplish more this way because the display is on my head and I can relax.

I do the same with viture pro xr glasses using a Bluetooth keyboard. It's been great when I'm having neck/back issues that require laying down to recover. The downside being that xr glasses cause a bit more eye strain, which forces the short periodic breaks that I should be taking anyway.

Do you just type with a regular keyboard then?
