Just went through this process this morning as I’ve been wanting to switch from using the “pi” user to my own usual user name since support for that came out on this Pi I used with my iPad Pro and this process was super easy to get communication between my Pi and my iPad Pro working smoothly. Thanks again for another excellent video.

Windows you can install the Bonjour package and get this to work I think. If you download iTunes and then use a setup decompressor - the file is really like 3 installers zipped, and you can get the Bonjour installer, and the iTunes installler and something else? Device installer? Anyway, this worked 3 years ago. Very likely doesn’t work with the new windows store version. But Bonjour is much easier to find on its own now too. There are also two windows protocols I enable for my Ethernet controllers in windows - I don’t recall their names but it’s something like windows peer mapping, there’s also the net discovery service (set network to private, open my network and allow searching for devices. This isn’t zeroconf via link local, but rather subnet discovery and mdns. You may have to enable mDNS on both your router and in Windows Firewall. Most the above requires windows pro- I don’t use home as they take out all the advanced config stuff but I’m sure it might be possible.

I think some packages will not work properly on paspian because of arm architecture. Is it true? For example, when you were developing with python, did you have to struggle to get some packages to work? As far as I know, emulation on the silicon side makes things easier. I think we're going to have to deal with some problems here. I'm currently using the M1 and the idea of developing on a device like an iPad is nice.

Is there something I can do about this? Can the Pi share my iPad's network connection, like if I were able to set my iPad as the default gateway? But then I'd need the iPad to get a static IP so I wouldn't have to change it every time. Thoughts? Thanks!!!

All tips are grand! But then again... since Apple M2 is also another ARM processor, and we're literally attaching another ARM processor to iPAD for coding purpose with this scenario... It would be way more efficient that if Apple opened up iOS, at least a little, for users to develop some IDE on it and Docker at least. M2 is super powerful... And yet we cannot use its power due to being locked out by manufacturer... (and this actually applies to any Android tablets as well. But a bit less in extent.) Just a bit frustrating... This great screen and the powerful processor are godsent gifts for a coding machine... And yet... we cannot utilize them...

@@tech_craft IDK, the market for that seems really really small. Like sure they probably wouldn't need all that much time to do it. But there is really no incentive to do so. From apple's perspective its spending their resources to add a feature to iPad that not many users would use. Like how many people use iPad, how many have a keyboard attachment of some kind (first party or otherwise) how many of those want to use the ipad to replace their mobile computer, of those how many are comfortable using a linux environment? I think that this is truly a very niche use case and expecting apple to support running competing software on their devices falls beyond reason. Especially because anyone who needs this will either find a work around like this or choose a different machine to work on.
