So you just completed a Django introduction tutorial and to test your skills you built a mini web app (library, news, mini Facebook....), or maybe it's tensor flow or pytorch for you and you created a shiny new regression model or a seq2seq translation model but these applications can only run on either your PC or on the cloud and you might need to impress a potential client or your friends with your PC not available, enter Ubuntu chroot with termux.

Termux is a terminal emulator that can be installed from the play store. Alone it boasts of powerful packages such as Node, Python, clang, Java e.t.c, but you can even get more serious by installing an Ubuntu chroot on it to make possible and mobile your wildest programming dream.

Once you install termux, launch it and enter the below commands one after another.

pkg install proot wget
mkdir ~/ubuntu
cd ~/ubuntu

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/
NeoOli/termux-ubuntu/master/ubuntu.sh

bash ubuntu.sh

The above commands will download and prepare the tools for running Ubuntu and once you are done enter the below command to launch your Ubuntu, and on termux relaunch just cd back into the ubuntu directory.

start-ubuntu.sh

To get a GUI interface you will need vnc server but the process can be easily gotten from Google.

The possibilities of what you can achieve with these is limitless (ssh into servers, git, Node Express server, React Dev server, deep learning models, Jupyter Notebook e.t.c) and happy pythoning.

Yeah

What you can achieve with Termux is endless
Especially for python programmers

I use it for perl scripts.
Very cool,you can even emulate android.The APT package manager is also a bomb

Termux is so dope.

Mehn that app is useful
