PadXcode-iPad/README.md

PadXcode — iPad App

Native iPadOS code editor. Connects to PadXcode-Daemon on your Mac over Tailscale.

Xcode Setup

./generate.sh
open PadXcode.xcodeproj
# Signing & Capabilities → set your Development Team
# Destination: your iPad → ⌘R

Git Setup

Your Raspberry Pi is the central git remote. Working Copy on iPad and Xcode on Mac both push/pull to/from the Pi.

Add the Pi as remote in Working Copy:

• Working Copy → your repo → Remote → set to your Pi's HTTP URL
• e.g. http://pi.tailscale-ip/PadXcode-iPad.git

Clone on Mac (for Xcode source control):

git clone http://pi.tailscale-ip/PadXcode-iPad.git ~/Dev/PadXcode-iPad
open ~/Dev/PadXcode-iPad/PadXcode.xcodeproj

Xcode handles all git operations (pull, commit, push) from Source Control.

Workflow

1. Edit code in PadXcode on iPad
2. Git panel → Commit & Push → Working Copy pushes to Pi
3. On Mac: Xcode → Source Control → Pull (gets iPad changes from Pi)
4. Mac can also commit and push back to Pi from Xcode
5. Daemon builds whatever is in the Mac working copy
