I use it to SSH into my server and mess around, when I'm feeling too lazy to grab a laptop.

emacs and ssh and git

sometimes programming to test out an idea that I come up with on the bus

I write scripts that I use at boot.

Or whenever.

Funny that some apps tell you root is needed to do some things.

A little persistent frustration and failure can produce desired results.

Eg. Shizuku can't start on boot without root.

Need to enable wireless debugging.

I wrote a horrific script that nmaps for ports in the wireless adb range.

Attempts to connect. If success, great. If fail. Do until yay!

Then it restarts adb in tcpip mode with a custom port of my choosing so,its available to other apps.

And another script to start shizuku using the shizuku script to run in terminal.

And I put those scripts in another script and put it in the .termux/boot folder

And ouila!

Shizuku starts at boot and other apps that rely on wadb can use it.

Oh, and it doesnt need a wireless connection.

I also ssh, proxy, nmap, scan, sftp, samba, etc.

Mainly downloading videos via yt-dlp
