However, so far this only worked with lessons that ran in the browser, not with the CLI lessons. The last few days, I have been looking at ways of doing local coding on my tablet. I found a neat open source Android Linux terminal, Termux. \n\nThe terminal offers a lot of packages, and I can even install typescript, python, golang, and bootdev! I can run bootdev CLI, login, but the problem comes when trying to run a lesson (I only tried the typescript course so far). Bootdev CLI returns the message:\n\nError: lesson is not supported for your operating system (android); try again with one of the following: [linux darwin].\n\nHow easy/possible is it to make the CLI tool work on the Termux terminal? I am not familiar enough with the requirements to understand where the pain points are for this compatibility issue. \n\nFor me this would be wonderful as I like learning on my tablet as this does not fix my learning to my desktop environment.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/aGitForEveryone","@type":"Person","name":"aGitForEveryone"},"datePublished":"2025-12-24T13:27:18.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/132/bootdev/issues/132"}
