You mean like ... taking notes? Diagnosing Wifi problems with simple terminal commands and so on?
no, nothing like that at all. debugging code and browsing the internet works much better with a larger screen.
I use my Chromebook C720 almost every day for work when I'm at a client. I used to dread having to lug around my P.O.S. HP laptop.
in your case it seems like a handheld andoid device would be enough.
