Hi, I recently experiment by installing vscode and nix on an Android tablet. What do you think about it ? Have you used an android tablet to create a simple development environment?

I cannot stress enough how much I don’t want to write code on a tablet

It’s more of a challenge for me to run vscode on android. At the end I explain that I will not use this setup as my daily driver

To my knowledge, there is no way to compile android apps on android, which is the type of development I want to do. If you can figure that out (assuming you have any interest in that) I would be ecstatic. Probably would require using nix’s cross-compilation options.
