This is the first I've heard of Termux and now I'm curious what you use it for. Like are you SSHing into other environments?

- nromiun 5y agohttps://www.passwordstore.org https://www.passwordstore.org Here is a popular CLI app to manage passwords. I use it on my desktop, laptop and phone.
- terseus 5y agoYou don't need Termux for that, there are native clients for Android, I use this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dev.msfjarvis.aps https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dev.msfjarvis....
- nromiun 5y agoThere are native clients, but can you use git to sync the encrypted passwords with your other devices? And that was just one example. You can also use python as a much better calculator, share files over wifi with a web server etc.
