How do I work on my portfolio without a laptop?

Question

Hey HackerNews,I'm a programmer by trade but I've recently lost my laptop so right now the only computer access I have is a public library computer.I set up an AWS EC2 instance to work on my Github portfolio but I can't log in to it. How do I get an SSH client on a public computer? Any ideas?Thanks, ripread

If you manage to put together $30-50 and own a HDMI tv then you can get your hands on a raspberry pi 4, which handles well as a low powered Linux desktop.

I'd look around for web-based tooling where possible.
Potentially you could install some kind of web-based shell on your AWS instance (or maybe Amazon even has something like that?)? If you have a smartphone you could run an SSH client on there for initial setup.
If you don't need to have AWS, there might also be other options. What kind of environment do you need?
