put an old computer in your closet. ssh through your phone (need a proper ssh client tho; I use a custom ssh client and keyboard, both not in the playstore but It's best for what I do). install GNU Screen. install Claude Code CLI. tell claude about your environment and what you are trying to do. enjoy.
Internet.connection (∴ tracking) not required
Does it even need to turn it into readable code?
Reddit! I'm looking at you?
StoreRun.app. It transforms grocery shopping from a chore into a collaborative experience ... still private beta and about 75% there but you can kick the tires for the non-sync version.

Feedback welcome
This could be a boon for Anthropic

it's been awesome ... i've been using this setup for 7+ years. Obviously with other phones (former pixel 5) but the passport form factor of the pixel fold works great for one handed use and I use it folded most of the time. Unfolded is just icing on the cake.
I build webapps so there's no difference using my phone or a laptop save for app switching/multi-window speed. As for typing speed, sure it's a bit slower but it helps I program in clojure(script) so the concise and terse syntax helps.
Also, when I need to dive into developer console I use KiwiBrowser which is slower to get around compared to desktop chrome but it gets the job done.
I've been meaning to share the minimally modified APKs I use and write a blog posts.

I've tried Termux but use the old irssiconnectbot (
https://github.com/irssiconnectbot/irssiconnectbot) but with slight modifications over the years since its open source... along with an also modified hackerkeyboard (
https://github.com/klausw/hackerskeyboard) to support my workflow which is heavy on emacs and GNU Screen.
The colors/graphics seem to be better on irssi and can also handle all the emacs and gnu screen keyboard chords and escape sequences.
I try every android terminal but nobody is really thinking about running more than simple commands.
I did something similar when X was twitter.
web apps can work offline
Could still work in some cases where a certain amount of users are in and out of the website and in proximity e.g. protests
I use a bespoke hacker software keyboard (ctrl/meta/custom keys for GNU screen and emacs) and also bespoke SSH client (fork of the original irssiconnectbot) for years.
My phone is the original Pixel Fold. You would think I use it unfolded but the passport form factor lends itself to be almost as productive folded that I use it that way most of the time. Unfolded it's just a bit better experience (bigger keys / more display real estate/ more characters per line/ etc).
With that said I'm looking forward to the Click Communicator: https://clicks.tech/communicator
I've also been meaning to write about my setup and open sourcing my tools.
Oh. Writing clojure helps due to the terseness of the language. Not sure it would be a pleasant experience writing something like Java with the 80 character line limit I try to impose on myself

This. PWA is the end of 75% of apps being in the app store
