Anyone using an iPad for some R/Python and/or analytics work while you're not using your main machine?

I'd like to try an iPad Pro out with some iOS python solutions like Juno etc.
 
Arbitrary code execution on iOS is quite limited due to App Store politics. I have tried a Python interpreter on there and it works alright, but I see it more as something similar to Xcode Playgrounds than a full interpreter. Nice that it's there though.

If you use a web platform you might actually have more luck. Server side code execution with a web interface for interaction works great



I definitely prefer a Mac for code, but an iPad Pro with a keyboard can definitely do for some things in a pinch
