Thanks for posting about our project. We made a Show HN post earlier - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40054486

We have promo codes for those that want to give this a try. Email support@userland.tech if you want one (first 500)

When we run Ubuntu on Android, we prefer UserLAnd over termux :)


I've been a happy UserLAnd user for a long time and it's a wonderful project, thank you!

I've have recently started using vmConsole too (which is based on qemu instead) as I needed docker. Also great.


As soon as there are arm binaries, we will make an app out of it :)


perhaps run with box64 ? ;-)


This actually runs vscode.


neat, any thoughts on how to use a different base app?


It is a pretty minimal install. I should probably put a web browser with it later. Thanks for the feedback. Please review it on the Play Store.


Great, just left a 5 star review.

If you could include instructions for any browser that will work with with-in this app on the mobile architecture or even better like you said include it in the app install setup process.

Let me know when either are done and I'll un-install and re-install to test.


Yes. It supports extensions.


Thanks for the response! So does vscode.dev, but it doesn’t support “Remote - SSH.” Could you confirm if this specific extension is functional?

To expand, for Remote - SSH to fully function it must read a ~/.ssh/config file as well.


I didn't read thoroughly enough. I have not tried that one yet. It should work as many people use SSH from the UserLAnd app, which this is similar to. If you try it out before we do, remember that android blocks apps from using the first 1k ports, so you have to run ssh on port 2022 or something like that, instead of the normal port 22.

I will make a point of getting that working if it doesn't.


We will make this happen.


An option using code server is coming. Will be in the same app, just different launch option.


How far away do you expect a Wayland-powered display to be? You're currently using VNC, but I'd imagine that <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mstoeckl/waypipe/> would also work while being smoother.


This is not the top of my list, but I am always looking at alternatives which can improve the way users interact with UserLAnd Technologies apps.


This is made by the makers of UserLAnd - Run Linux on Android. Looking for early feedback. If you want a promo code (first 500) please email support@userland.tech.


Is there a planned feature for it to be incorporated into UserLAnd? Possibly through an In-App Purchase? It would be neat to be able to manage this along side other UserLAnd instances

Edit: Nevermind it is there. Super Awesome


Very cool! While I'm not an Android user, I'm glad to see this released. The more tablet-friendly IDE's the better.
