I’d not heard of it before but it seemed perfect – it’s a Remote Desktop provider supporting Microsoft’s RDP protocol which means you can connect using the standard Windows Remote Desktop app. I originally used TeamViewer to occasionally connect to the device but randomly last month the PC client started crashing on load and even an uninstall/reinstall wouldn’t get it working again so I looked for an alternative. Xamarin have done a great job to minimise this – you can do your development in Visual Studio on your PC but you have to connect to a Mac running their Build Server and you need to use the Mac to deploy apps to the iTunes store.īecause it was only for occasional interaction I don’t want the Mac Mini (which is a very nice looking piece of hardware BTW) setup with a Keyboard/Mouse/Monitor taking up space so it’s running as a headless device. Wait, I hear you cry, you’re a Windows developer! Well that is true but I also use Xamarin to produce apps for iOS and Android and to build and deploy iOS apps you have to have a Mac in your workflow.
