I’m wanting to do some light coding on my phone. I want no ads, monospace font, prefer FOSS. Syntax highlighting would be nice, but not required. Should handle files of decent length, 200+ lines.
Pretty much anything on F-Droid is for older versions of Android, play store apps all seem to have ads or onine editing.
I use vim on termux and it works great if that’s your cup of tea, ofc there are plenty of other editors available to install in termux
I use vim in Linux, so this is appealing. I guess I need to learn about Termux, I thought it was just a terminal for remote access.
yeah it’s a local shell you use on your phone, its package manager is an apt wrapper (you can also use apt directly). I use termux a lot and love it even for coding via ssh, it’s cool
that looks like what I’m looking for. I’d gotten put off by the f-droid warning about features I might not want (I was distracted then).
thanks!
vim/neovim in termux :)
You can use vscode.dev as a PWA and open files on your phone. You could also host your own vscode server on termux to get compilers, debuggers, interpreters, … working.
