Depends on what you want to output. Webapps? Nothing, it already has all you need, especially if you are willing to use a remote server that you are ssh'ed into but you don't NEED that. For native compiled code and apps? Apple needs to release a Xcode compiler and a developer mode that lets you run self-signed binaries on the hardware.

Is there an inspector in Safari for iOS? Can I dig into the markup on a page and debug CSS and layout issues?
I do this today on my 6th gen iPad. I use MOSH, a BlueTooth mechanical keyboard, and Blink as my client. It works well.
If you develop anything for the web, don't you need to check how it renders on other browsers?
I don't do a ton of web front end work and what front end work I do is pretty simple. I'm 99% a native mobile developer and IoT C++/Python developer. Usually mobile safari is good enough for me.
Safari is usually good enough for what I do. I can use BrowserStack if need be, too.
