A gentle introduction to iPad driven development using Gitpod
summary
Shows how Gitpod spins full cloud dev VMs in seconds, boots a PetClinic Spring Boot app, and gives a shareable preview link with public port forwarding; supports Docker Compose databases, reusable prebuild cache for faster starts, and local VS Code via SSH remote plus IntelliJ/dotfiles support. Demo claims one-click workspaces, extension installation, and branch-per-issue flows. Notes limits: 30-minute idle shutdown and not a multiuser persistent host; free tier covers private repos up to 50 hours free.
