Sure, Chess and IRC is cool; but what else can you even do with termux, considering it's really sandboxed?
That's a pretty big sandbox if you can host a web application from it though. It's really not that restricted but there are compatibility issues so you find your self rebuilding primitives to make things work.
I think the next think I want to make is a notes/word processing web app. There is a pretty good use case to be to able to connect and process documents from a private server on any machine.
interesting...
sadly the androids i have are potatoes :(
