The native iPad developer workspace built for VS Code, GitHub Codespaces, and remote dev environments.
Desktop-class VS Code development workspace running natively on iPadOS.
Vysio blends the efficiency of a native iPadOS dashboard with a secure, sandboxed client built for modern cloud workspaces.

How do I connect my self-hosted code-server?
- Ensure your
code-serverinstance is reachable over HTTPS. - Copy the full URL (e.g.
https://dev.yourdomain.com). - Open Vysio on iPad and paste the workspace URL.
- Authenticate using your server’s configured auth/token flow.
For private home-lab setups, we recommend using:
- Tailscale (private mesh VPN)
- Cloudflare Tunnel (secure public ingress)

Are Magic Keyboard shortcuts supported?
Yes. Vysio captures keyboard events natively on iPadOS, so common VS Code bindings such as Cmd+Shift+P, Cmd+B, and Cmd+W work reliably without browser interception.
Codespaces won’t load or reconnect reliably. What should I check?
- Confirm your GitHub account has access to Codespaces.
- Verify network connectivity and temporarily disable restrictive VPN/proxy rules.
- Ensure your organization policies permit Codespaces usage.
- Open a bug report with logs, screenshots, and reproduction steps.
Please read CONTRIBUTING.md before opening issues. Keep discussions respectful, constructive, and focused on improving Vysio.
