Termux
Termux is an Android terminal emulator and Linux environment app that works directly without the need for rooting or configuration. The minimal base system is automatically installed – additional packages are available through the APT Package Manager.
Secure
Accessing remote servers using an ssh client from OpenSSH. Termux combines standard packages with accurate terminal emulation in a beautiful open-source solution.
Feature Packed
Choose between Bash, Fish, or Zsh and nano, Emacs, or Vim. Grep through your SMS inbox. Access the API endpoints with curl and use Rsync to store backups of your contact list on a remote server.
Customizable
Install what you want through the APT package management system known as Debian and Ubuntu GNU / Linux. Why not start by installing Git and syncing your dot files?
Explorable
Have you ever got on a bus and wondered what kind of arguments tar takes? The packages available in Termux are the same as on Mac and Linux – install the help pages on your phone and read them in one session, experimenting with them in another.
With Batteries Included
Can you imagine a more powerful yet elegant pocket calculator than the readline-enabled Python console? All modern versions of Perl, Python, Ruby, and Node.js are available.
Ready to Scale Up
Plug in a BlueTooth keyboard and connect your device to an external display if you need to – Termux supports keyboard shortcuts and has full mouse support.
Tinkerable
Develop by compiling Go, Rust, Swift, or C files with Clang, and build your own projects with CMake and pkg-config. Both lldb / GDB and strace are available if you get stuck and need to debug.
