I’m hooked on Moshi and working from an iPad. I have the Astropad Workbench for when I need to interact directly with my Mac, and Moshi for all of my coding sessions. I’ve gone from not being able to imagine doing development from an iPad to being able to full on iOS/Android/web/server development.

@rudrank LOL I was getting real excited there for a minute!
@kyle Unrelated to this thread… what are you using here for mobile input?
I’m always looking for improvements on my shellfish and tmux setup.
@rudrank How is context window is 16k? I thought that was capped at 4096? 👀
@fahrni I did this for about 2 years. I’ve been in neovim for the past year or so.
I’ve had both be able to be set up for the debug sessions, and it can be challenging with path setup and running the right processes.
@sanguish Ah yea. I was working with Star and Epson for receipts and maybe an epson shipping printer. Each were well supported with some handy SDK wrappers.
I also did some work direct with CUPS printing which should work with most printers, but that sounds like too much work when you have it working!
I bet LLMs would be good at translating applescript to JS applescript.
@sanguish I wrote a desktop printing and also POS apps and for an electron app, use node-HID to communicate directly with printers for printing labels. It worked well?
I think even web USB might can work nowadays.

@QuietMisdreavus Last year or so, I bought the Sabrent thunderbolt 4 kvm for this very setup. It is expensive, but provides a true thunderbolt experience where both devices can be plugged in and you press a switch to go between them.
It is a bit of a hub itself, so much can be connected “directly”. An additional hub or such could be used daisy chained if it wasn’t enough. It’s been very reliably for me. I don’t love the look of it, taped over the bright blue leds, but it was the first thing to market that was an actual TB4 kvm.
@bigzaphod I picked tapestry back up after a couple of months after seeing seeing this connector for my RSS reader app: https://github.com/alienlebarge/tapestry-miniflux-connector
This made management of my feeds much easier and I'm really enjoying it on my mac and my phone! It looks really great on iOS/macOS 26.x
@paul I started this way as well. I have gotten to the point I still do this sometimes, but I’ve also got multiple work trees and branches going with bug fixes and feature development. I’m able to stuff a lot more into a work day. Validation and review can still take some time, but parallelizing work has me making more, smaller changes.
@chbeer Yea, that’d be great too! But being able to control when that padding is changed with some version bump against a host of automated snapshot tests is my dream!
@chbeer It’s almost like SwiftUI should be a library and we should be able to version it ourselves.
@jsalling This is also the key to how powersync is able to work. https://www.powersync.com/

They’re peeing in plastic bottles and leaving them on the curb?
@bigzaphod exactly! If this was part of my $100 dev fee I’d feel a lot better about it. And they could charge for “organization” accounts separately and make money on it even. To cede this critical dev tool to 3rd parties is …a choice…
