My wife got me a Commodore 64 Ultimate (https://www.commodore.net) for my birthday, and it became an obvious hassle to have to keep an entire monitor connected to it just to tinker with it. When I found out the Ultimate FPGA board has built-in support for streaming the video and audio data over the network, as well as a REST API allowing for file and configuration management, I set to work on an app to remotely control my new device.
- View and hear your Commodore 64 Ultimate or Ultimate 64 device over the network, with a fully configurable CRT shader so you can dial in just the right retro feel.
- View and manage files on your device, including support for drag and drop folder/file upload, as well as the ability to run and mount disks, create new disk images, and more.
- BASIC Scratchpad is a mini-IDE in the app where you can write BASIC apps and send them directly to any of your connected devices to run.
- Keyboard forwarding allows you to interact with your device with your computer keyboard, includes a keyboard overlay for Commodore specific keys your keyboard definitely doesn't have.
- Visual memory viewer and editor, along with a terminal-like memory viewer and editor for debugging and tinkering.
- Built-in support for recording videos and taking screenshots cleanly.
Please note again this app only works with Commodore 64 Ultimate or Gideon's Ultimate 64 devices. Ultimate II does not have the data streams feature to power the display.

Here's a rough and ready demo video I recorded and sent to App Review for the 2.0 release which was approved yesterday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2wJO2wOGm8
