Connect MacBook Pro to a Mac mini 2?

I just received a new mac mini 2 and have yet to purchase a monitor. Is it possible to use my Macbook Pro (15-inch, 2018) as a monitor, keyboard, and track pad for the Mac Mini in order to set it up?

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 13.2

Nope’ you need a display, keyboard and mouse to do the setup.


Most any display or even an HDMI TV will work.

see > Connect a display to Mac mini - Apple Support


Also most any old Generic or PC wired USB keyboard and mouse will work.
