yes. Has been possible since at least M1.
Buy M-based iPad, nice monitor, keyboard and mouse. Connect mouse and keyboard to monitor via USB. Then iPad via USB-C/Thunderbolt to monitor. Everything "just works" and you can handle surprisingly high amount of work this way
Specs show that Pro models got Thunderbolt and Air only got USB-C.
Very vague specs.
Can iPad Air USB-C deliver 4k 120hz or how much bandwidth that USB-C got?
It's been possible since the iPad 2.
I used to code HTML/CSS that way back in... 2011?
Can you share more about this experience please? To me, you're still left with apps that are designed for a touchscreen and consumption.
