Sprites on iPad

Hi,
I am wondering if there is anyway to run sprites from iPad. I understand I can may be install an SSH server and use it with Terminus, but is there a better supported mechanism or an example like you have for sshfs.

You would not need an SSH server, just a terminal. My quick search reveals this; any good? I’ve not tried it, mind you.

I tried ish. But it gives me following error when I install sprite

Error: Unsupported architecture: i686

@amit It is totally doable, but you will need some VPS with sprites.dev installed on it.

Basically, there are SSH clients for iPad where you ssh into your VPS. From there you can launch sprites and interact with them.

Check out digital ocean VPS for example, even their cheapest VPS should be able to do this. You could also self-host on a Raspberry Pi if you’re feeling confident (just make sure to follow all the security procedures).

But this would be an anti pattern. Buy a VPS to connect to a remote session.

Ultimately, sprites connectivity are like taking over remote console like ssh. So if there can be a native way to connect to sprites with ssh, it would be great. The other option is to just install an ssh server on your instance.

It will be just awesome, if fly teams adds support for ipad natively, or simple ssh server.

Ah, apologies; I should have made my last comment clearer. In the terminal you’d need an SSH client, yes. If my recommendation did not bear fruit, Protean’s suggestion of an SSH client app is the way to go.

Would definitely be cool to expand my app to work great on iPad too. I think an interactive terminal would be much more appealing there too.
