Building Germux 2.0
We are developing the new version in stages. These features are available in the 2.0 test APK and are being refined through phone and PC testing.
Name your tabs, hide a session in the background and return to the same running terminal. The session list keeps your work within reach.
Explore desktops →Work with AI in the terminal. Local documentation describes available commands and helps an agent check the environment.
Work with AI →Germux discovers PCs on your network. With the new SSH connection, you approve the phone on the computer and the permission is remembered.
Explore the connection →Phone + computer
Your PC provides compilation power, while the program targets Android. Shared recipes are intended to make tested build instructions reusable.
SSH and file transfers are implemented in the new version. Managed long-running tasks and automatic package imports are next steps.
How packages and recipes fit together →Start with the terminal and available tools. AI can help identify what your project needs.
Prepare Live USB and the initial pairing. Approve the connection on the PC screen.
A successful build is the beginning. The tool still needs to run and pass checks on the target Android device.
