Same. While it's near impossible these days to get many things done without an internet connection I usually like to have a full stack on localhost for convenience. I'm curious how anyone might meaningfully develop using the iPad Pro.

While I am not committed to it yet, I have found it pretty easy to move a lot of my development work to my iPad Air 2. Pythonista, Working Copy, and Textastic cover local dev/testing cycle, Blink lets me connect in to a mosh session on a cloud dev server, and with Screens I can VNC to my laptop sitting on my desk, etc. I still prefer my MBA for dedicated coding sessions, but I have been pleasantly surprised by how far you can get with just a tablet and bluetooth keyboard or keyboard case for the tablet.
