Termux is a package that brings several things to Android[1]:

1: /android/

• A terminal emulator
• A set of packages rebuilt for the pecularities of running as a regular user app on Android
• An apt-based package manager as from Debian[2] (though this is not a Debian derivative in any other way)

2: /debian/

Termux does not require a rooted phone and is not an emulator. Programs run at native speed.

My page NNCP on Android[3] uses Termux.

IMPORTANT: Do not install Termux from the Play Store. That version is outdated and broken. Use the links on the homepage to install from F-Droid or the APK directly.
