Termux VSCode-Server

A mobile development environment: Run VS Code Server on Android using Termux, with integrated WebView access.

Overview

This project enables you to run a full-featured VS Code Server directly on your Android device using Termux. Once the server is set up, the app launches a WebView for seamless, in-app code editing.

Features

  • VS Code Server on Android: Use the power of VS Code remotely on your phone or tablet.
  • Termux Integration: Leverages Termux for Linux-like environment and package management.
  • Automatic WebView Launch: After setup, the app opens a WebView to access the running code-server instance.
  • Touch-friendly UI: Optimized for mobile usage.

How It Works

  1. Setup: The app installs ubuntu and configures code-server inside Ubuntu.
  2. Start Server: On launch, it checks and starts the code-server if not already running.
  3. WebView Access: Once running, a WebView is triggered to access the code-server UI at http://127.0.0.1:8080.
  4. Development: Edit files, run terminals, and manage your projects just like on desktop VS Code.
