Termux has been a great resource on Android: https://termux.dev/en/ https://termux.dev/en/ If the future ChromeOS-Android hybrid (ChAnroid?) loses Crostini Linux, but is able to run Android applications then Termux might be a good option depending on the task. Aside: this ChromeOS-Android merge brings to mind the Chenjesu-Mmrnmhrm merge to create the Chmmr in SC2. Maybe the ChromeOS-Android merge will similarly yield a wonderful hybrid result?

Knowing Google it'll be more like the Zoq-Fot-Pik... all jumbled together till no one knows what's what.

You can run a full VSCode on Crostini -- the "real" Electron app -- but not on Termux. There are ways around it like using code-server on a Linux environment, but far from the same thing.

I love Termux but I'm a bit worried about its future. Google has been hardening Android in ways that harm Termux quite a bit (e.g. https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/2366 https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/2366). It does seem that new Android lets you turn off the phantom process killer, so maybe there's hope, but still Termux is forced to target an old API version and can't be published on Google Play.

  The issue you linked is more or less resolved at this point. If you find Termux processes being killed, just run this command over adb shell and you're good: settings put global settings_enable_monitor_phantom_procs false Google added this setting in response to a bug report submitted by a Termux maintainer. It's also persistent, so you only have to run the command once. The more pressing issue at this time is: https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/2155 https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/2155
