> Maybe Apple will let the iPad dual boot iPadOS and macOS someday soon assuming the MacBooks transition to ARM.
That would be excellent. iPad needs a local web server capability for development, e.g. to run Jekyll/Ruby or Hugo/golang. Rumor is that upcoming Apple Arm CPU will support hardware virtualization, which could theoretically enable Linux to run in a sandboxed VM.
As for UX, the new iPad Magic Keyboard is a game changer that seamlessly blends tablet and laptop. Now we need to address the iOS gaps (e.g. Xcode, non-Safari browser and mail client) and/or allow dual-boot as you suggested.

On Pythonista you can run Flask or Django, it's nifty. The apps are coming, there's one for nodejs and react. Would not be surprised to see ruby/go soon.
