Using a Mac from iOS iPad with Luna Display

First Paragraph from the Article:
"In the first part of my ongoing experiment with controlling and accessing a Mac from the iPad Pro, I covered FileExplorer – the app I use to open Finder locations from iOS' Files app – and shared a collection of shortcuts to control certain macOS features via Siri and the Shortcuts app. I also described my podcasting setup and how I've been taking advantage of Keyboard Maestro to automate window resizing across my two displays connected to the Mac mini. Today, I'm going to cover one of those two external displays – the iPad Pro running the Luna Display app – and how I've been using it to have "macOS as an app" on my iPad Pro. If you find this idea of reducing macOS to an app that runs on the iPad upsetting, the rest of this article likely isn't going to make you happy. If you're intrigued, however, strap in because I have a lot to share."

Have been using Luna with my 2018 Mac Mini and Macbook Air - works really well. having extra space for Xcode is great.

Everyone here returns things because people here appear to be massive impulse buyers lol. I've been interested in the Luna Display for a while now, but I just don't see the use for one in my case.

I love Luna, its worked great for me. I've not used it like they're suggesting, just used it as a quick and easy Wacom Cintiq replacement for my MBP.

It's definitely not that useful to most people, but there is something really neat about being able to run full photoshop/Affinity/whatever on your iPad around the house. (Even then though IMO it's becoming more of a gimmick as the iPad native apps are so damn good anyway!)
