Hi @vanarok, great to see you got it running on android. Targeting mobile platforms isn't a priority for the project as of now, though. If you want to, we can link to your fork in the readme

@pascalbreuninger
Thanks for the comprehensive answer. I hope someday there will be official support for mobile platforms, because remote work in the cloud is gradually becoming popular thanks to, for example: samsung dex, miui pc mode.

I won't mind if you point this out in the readme.

Absolutely, we've also thought about it quite a bit, and people have been asking for it ever since the launch. There's a lot of work to add two non-desktop OSs though and we simply don't have the capacity to work on that atm.

Added your release.yaml to this page on the docs btw

Btw, with nix-on-droid (a termux fork that use nixpkgs), you can use nix shell nixpkgs#devpod --extra-experimental-features nix-command --extra-experimental-features flakes to get a prebuilt binary.

It would still be nice, for termux users, to package devpod for them too eventually.
