New iPad app Vysio bypasses Safari limits for cloud coding
Developer Pierre Perrin built Vysio, a native iPadOS client for cloud IDEs like GitHub Codespaces, solving Safari's keyboard shortcut hijacking and WebSocket sleeping. The app uses SwiftUI and UIScene for multi-window support, encrypts tokens in Apple Keychain, and keeps sessions alive during background tasks. Vysio is in early beta, aiming to make iPad Pro a viable development machine.

Vysio addresses real pain points for iPad developers, but its success depends on adoption and whether Apple's WebKit restrictions will eventually close these loopholes.
