Very cool ! Finally something to do with my old phones lying around
(but who commits their .DS_Store file tho ? 🙈)
I’m convinced Mac users just become blind to the file. I see it all over repos at work.
deleted by creator
Because adding to the .gitignore would threaten their existence.
rookie mistake 🤣
Never used mac before, whats this. DS_Store file for?
Nintendogs save file I think
Ah yeah of course 😅
There is also “local desktop” app which automates most of steps to make system.
Incredible things are happening with termux.
This doesn’t look like another alpine vm. But maybe I misread the install script. I see it uses apt so some sort of Debian base? If so, no root, GPU accelerated, not virtualized, Linux on Android is quite the accomplishment.
It’s an installer for Termux packages. You can do the same thing manually in Termux shell, if you know the names of packages you are installing.
And yes, Termux uses Debian apt package manager.
Thanks, that was definitely the missing piece in my understanding.
Just to put it out here. Termux has
proot-distrothat allows you to run qite a few distros as containers. Technically not a VM afaik. I find it useful, because it is sometimes simpler to wipe that instead of reinstalling Termux.
Is it possible to have a no-graphical session ? Boot on tmux directly for example ? That’s could be great!
I would imagine so.
we really need a user friendly gui app tgat can finish tge whole setup into a linux environment quickly and easily. think of it like carlimaries installer for linux on Android
This, apart from the home assistant use, may be a great solution for an all in one klipper setup for 3d printers (I currently use a RasPi, and a tablet as a touchscreen), or installed inside a chunky keyboard, paired with one of these USB C all in one hubs as a PC in a keyboard build,. Neat.
Is Termux an operating system by itself?
It’s not, it is a terminal emulator application for Android that creates a Linux-like environment.
