Yes, it works on the iPad well enough. Safari doesn't support the local files feature (due to security) but it works, as others have said, in a pinch.
If you save it as a shortcut to your Home Screen, it almost comes across as a native app.

Yes. There’s also a slightly different version of it it blink shell, which packages a web version of vscode as well. In general this one performs a little better imo and has integrations with local filesystems
I do web dev casually with it all the time via a vpn to my server back home and the inspect app for debugging
I tried it a year or two ago and I had issues with the keyboard shortcuts (had to disable keyboard shortcuts on ipados) and scrolling behaviour. I seem to recall having other issues with safari and the local files but it’s been a while.
I’m not in a place I can try it out, but if it works then that would open up remote web development.
