> Android doesn't run Linux It literally does. It doesn't run GNU/Linux. And the native non-Java API is usable by Android applications so it's not just an implementation detail. In fact, I suspect most games are developed this way. This shows how much you know about Android. Google even calls this the Native Development Kit. > Kotlin is the main official language since 2 years now Kotlin doesn't run on Android. You need a "real" computer to run Kotlin. It's not an Android native development tool. Why you bothered to bring it up when it's outside the scope of this conversation, I don't know.

Apparently it does run https://developer.android.com/kotlin https://developer.android.com/kotlin So my phone is a real computer. Here find out the Linux APIs on the NDK. https://developer.android.com/ndk/guides/stable_apis https://developer.android.com/ndk/guides/stable_apis ISO C and C++ standard libraries OpenGL, Vulkan, OpenSL, OpenMax, Khronos standards Android specific native APIs. Zero Linux specific APIs. Any OS can provide them, and most of them are already on Fuchsia.
