It might be worth checking out Prompt - supports some nice edge cases too, like SSH agent forwarding.

Check out iSH (free, available as a testflight, but also open source on GitHub) - https://github.com/tbodt/ish https://github.com/tbodt/ish It's a full user mode x86 emulator, letting you run alpine Linux in a nice terminal, and install packages from it. I don't know to what extent iSH would address your desire for something like Termux.
- _ph_ 7y agoI am reasonably happy with blink, that it supports mosh is a big bonus as iPadOS likes to kill background tasks, but the screen refresh is not fast (the output is html based) and it doesn't deal well with split windowing. I am aware of iSH, but as you say, its requires "using" the testflight system and while that might be ok for enthusiasts, it is nothing for the large audience. Obviously , as testflight is limited to 10k users.
