Happily using #julialang on my Android phone.

It potentially takes the place of an infinity of “apps”.

Nice! What path did you take to install it?

badphysicist.bsky.social•26 days ago

Once you install Termux and Debian with proot-distro, you can install anything that is or can be compiled for Arm and can run in Debian. Then installation is just as for a Linux desktop/laptop.

But no juliaup 😢

I don’t use juliaup (as I mention in https://lwn.net/Articles/1006117/), but I don’t see why you can’t install it on the phone too.

I don't have an LWN subscription so haven't read your linked article, but I do enjoy how juliaup works. I'm an electrical engineer and I primarily use Julia by way of Pluto notebooks for analysis or simulation.

Biggest barrier is laziness / time constraints / or that I don't enjoy the puzzles of trying to build something on an unsupported platform.

You don’t have to build Julia. Just download the Arm binary from https://julialang.org/. That’s what I did on my phone.

Did you try installing SQLite? What happens when you install a package that depends on a JLL package?

badphysicist.bsky.social•26 days ago

Did not try.
