Lyx on the iPad would be a dream... and risk to remain a dream, since Lyx is
Hmm, perhaps a bit closer than we suspect.
based on QT and I have a lot of doubts that Qt based softs will be available
on this platform some day. :-(
If Mark Shuttleworth makes good on his promise to come up with a
Ubuntu version for tablets* [1] (he estimates 14.04 LTS Ubuntu), and
this Ubuntu is a genuine Linux coming along with X.Org et al., then I
see little reason why LyX wouldn't be available on tablets in the
medium-term future. As for right now, I agree with Murat that LyX
cannot be used on Android or iOS unless someone comes up with a port,
which I guess would be difficult to unfeasible.

Lyx is a complete ecosystem of tools. Even a
minimal editing interface for Lyx would be magnificent, but the whole
interface is based on QT, as far as I know... In the mean time, I export to
Latex and use TexTouch on iPAD, it is a rather decent Latex editor, with
some Preview possibilities using their server or your laptop.
Post by a***@bath.ac.ukDear LyX,
Is it possible to run LyX software on an Apple iPad or other Tablet
devices such as Android etc.? (I assume it can run on Windows 7 tablet
devices?)
Many thanks in advance,
Andrew Smith (Year 1 - Mathematical Sciences)
