I like doing remote development, and Blink Shell makes the most sense. I have a box at Hetzner for this (DigitalOcean/Linode/AWS/etc/ are all good options), and the iPad has cellular, which is great. Remember to remap keys for extreme productivity.
That said, you might also be surprised that there are a few apps (they don't cost much, and if you really want to save $$$, you could compile many):
I have Working Copy (pay for it, otherwise you can't push to your git repos), and I also do use Textastic.
This is still not as powerful as doing stuff on my Macbook Pro, but that one doesn't have cellular, and I only tether when in need.
Edit: I also found a self-hosted option for VS Code that i have not used, but might actually be great to further power the iPad development environment.
I tried many apps, but went back to notebooks. Field Notes in particular. Get a subscription, they're great.
