Hi There

I am aware that Xcode is not currently available for the iPad as yet; is there someone out there in the Apple community that has real knowledge of wether this is something that currently being looked at/developed by Apple?

I do remember watching a WWDC once and heard this being mentioned by Apple that we will be able to create/code apps and publish to the App Store directly from the iPad Pro (may have been few years ago). Will this in fact become a reality?🤤 certainly this isn’t easy & will need to time to become a reality, I’m just hoping that is does in fact become a reality at some point- IT IS MUCH NEEDED!!

It is a reality, you can make and publish apps from an iPad using Swift Playgrounds. It's far from Xcode in terms of features and requires a special project type, but technically you can
