Anyone Coding on Portable Projectors?

Question

Has anyone found a good portable setup for working on the go using portable projectors? I'm guessing a projector that's good for coding/text needs to be high resolution (min. 1080 but probably 4k), not noisy, high refresh rate, and small. Speakers are not needed. Portable monitors might be okay for some but I'm hoping for a larger display, let's say 27 inches at least.

I don't believe projector can be not noisy, especially FullHD+ when each pixel has a tiny number of lm/lx. If your the blackest possible black is just grey then you are not going to enjoy your color schemes and you are going to have problems of distinguishing dot vs comma or "rn" vs "m" and so on. I would recommend to take something with low resolution and high power.

do you mean native resolution? Or supported resolution?They're not the same, after all :)but to the main thrust of the question ... why would I want to "code on a portable projector" ... when I have a great screen on my laptop which I would otherwise be connecting to said "portable projector"?If you want to talk about bringing your own showcase gear for demoing what you've done / teaching a class / etc because the location(s) you visit may not have one, that's a different storyBut I never have thought of hooking up to any kind of a projector "for coding/text" if I am by myself
