and can we also run intellij in this way. that would be really cool and we dont have to relay on other softwares liks andronix and vnc viewer which causes alot of troublle and battery as well...
@@Develoquent I have already got rid of my tablet by using the fold. I can't wait until I get rid of my laptop. I think with AR glasses, we may not need monitors in the future at all.
Really a cool idea to use desktop mode of a smart phone for development. But for me, I think that using Microsoft Remote Desktop to connect to a PC seems to be a better idea.
I have used it wirelessly on a 4k tv as well as hdmi cable to usbc on a 4k tv. The quality and speed on a 4k screen compared to lower resolution is the same, quick and responsive. Although, wirelessly dex does have a small lag.
how long it takes to restart your session after you come the next day? I think only command inwould need to enter is the one to start server on localhost..... Also would be nice if you post a 2022 update video on your experience.
Thank you so much for this video, I've been looking for this. I tried everything and it works perfect but I need a little help here, I am a web developer and I often use console and inspect element on browser but this is not available on Android's chrome browser do you know any work around for this. Is there any way I could install Chrome OS's chrome browser on Android.
I will have to revisit this. The process may not work the same now with new phone updates. It could possibly be the ubuntu version is causing an issue as well. Ill make a new video soon on a process that will work at the current time.
@@Develoquent ./startubuntu.sh, says the thing i said before and shows me a proot error (im not using a samsung device, im thinking to buy one but first im trying to test this in my actual phone to see how it works, my phone has an snapdragon 636, idk if this can be the problem)

I tried doing this, and its bearable. Since the arch under the hood is ARM, it is a pretty fast processor, faster than we realize actually. A 4GB RAM can handle all this. 6GB will not even feel like a mobile anymore!
Thanks for the comment! It really helps out the Channel! Glad to help. You may run into issues with a tar package version, as this video was made months ago. Just make sure you use a up to date VS code version compatible with an up-to-date version of Ubuntu :)
Yes definitely, the process is the same. You can simply open samsung dex on your tab s7, and go through the steps just the same. Tab s7 would be a great device actually, with the big screen. You can also connect it to a monitor and open dex on the monitor and have two screens available.
DeX is an amazing thing Samsung does. It removes the problem of compatibility between devices. As long as you have DeX, you can do everything on any device. Software makes all the difference!
it's great you can do this. honestly. but i don't think it can, for now, be your daily driver, even if i wished it could. Imagine running Geforce Now for pc gaming, with coding apps like on a PC, this could completely recplace your setup if run from a Samsung tablet. Crazy.
awesome tutorial man, Im stuck in a sprint to clone soundcloud by monday, but when I get a break this week, I'm going to get this running on my phone. This would be convenient on my 10+ instead of a damn laptop. I really want to get more familiar with linux so this kills two birds. Thanks again!

i would like to just install vscode on my tablet as an editor, and then ssh to my server to run my code. Could you show me how could I do the ssh with vscode on my table? I can do the ssh on termux already, but I'd like an coding appearance like vscode ^^ thank you in advance
@@Develoquent yes, I can ssh on the terminal of vscode, but I want to open the .py file on my sever to edit on vscode. Anyway thank you so much ^^ I will check your other videos
If you can run c in linux terminal, you can use termux to run it there and use VNC viewer on dex to port into the terminal for a GUI to view your Linux. There you should be able to have a virtual computer so to speak. Also look at virtual desktops. You can open something like ShadowPC on your phone while mirroring / running dex on a monitor or tv..
I have yet to run a react application locally, but i do believe it is possible. I can look more into this, but i believe if you install the necessary packages, and run create-react-app (your app name) you should be able to get it running. Basically you are running a Linux distro, so most things should work, although there are some issues with packages at times, so you may run into issues that way.
@@Develoquent Running all of this in a container might be the solution here (as I commented). Besides the only concern would that be of space. If the device has 256 GB on board, we can practically do anything we want! But if the device has limited memory like 64 or less than that, then it may be a point of concern. Using microSD may increase the memory, but its still not a long term solution. SD cards are not made to act like HDD so it may ruin it in the long run. We could connect a HDD with phone through USB hub, and store all the data there. That is a much better solution and we will have a full blown workstation!
@@Develoquent Thanks for the suggestion. I installed python 3.9.1 it on termux. installed python 2.7.18 on ubuntu. Was able to install latest version of code server and was able to install python extension through it. Wonder if the python that is installed in code server extension is good enough or do i need to installed latest version on ubuntu also. I guess i am still a little to which one is used for development.
Hey man, nice tutorial, I have a question and it would be great if you know the answer. Can you use the Termux app to connect to a server using ssh? I am hosting my development environment somewhere else and run the UI on my browser, can you do the same on your phone/ tablet? I am considering it as an option to work without my laptop while on traveling.
many thanks to your video, but I'm stuck at the localhost part. It said: "Localhost Can't be Reached, Refused to Connect on a Browser". can you help me with this. appreciate your work, man
Its like a hit in the face for all programmers and gamers an camera artist if you start realizing it was all the phone 🤕🥴 you remember yourself sitting there playing ps 3 and today you download the emulator😂🎉
the monitor weighs around 4lbs, then a portable battery 2 lbs, cords.. not sure, and phone, 1 lb. so overal around 8 lbs? pretty light. Also if you throw a keyboard in there, over 10 lbs.
@@Develoquent im been using neovim and lunarvim directly on termux no ubuntu,i even have nvim debugin java, (so far working as good as vscode) full idea, but will watch that video when ready
Never heard of that before. See if anyone else has had that issue online. If nothing then delete and termux cache and try again, or re install vs code altogether
There are so many things you can do! But running Linux on Android does have its limitations as far as what packages you can install, and what versions will work.
Why don't we go one more step ahead and use VNC viewer to get the full desktop look? Also, wouldn't it be better to run ubuntu inside a container, so that it doesn't mess around with other files by mistake? Just asking.
I found the vnc viewer really takes a lot more ram and battery, though it may be a better option for you if you plan on using more than VScode. Running Ubuntu in a container can help, but i found as long as you aren't changing files or deleting files from your phone and only creating new ones, you will be just fine. Don't mess with stuff you don't understand.
Thanks a lot for your effort to make this video, and the script! Currently to run code-server all that we need to do is to run the single line code from the home of the projet. But only in ubuntu, not works in termux. But with ubuntu open so many things like systemd, etc.
My note 10+ has 256gb, so there's plenty of room. I don't know how much space it takes, but you will want a phone with at least 6gb of ram and 128gb of storage. I think the ububtu package will take a few gigs but not too much. Have a little space and ram and you should be good. Fully charge your phone, it can drain the battery fairly quickly when you are downloading packages and doing bigger job tasks
Boah if you can programming on a desktop like dex computer then a smartphone is really becomes a pc . Who sad that a smartphone is a phone it can also can be called smart camera like the samsung galaxy cam that runs android but still is focused on be a camera or smart radio or smArt flashlight i saw already people programming the arduino on a phone but hold on why is samsung galaxy ultras system taken 90g of storage what does the system do ?! Old android devices just i think use 2 g for the phone system
Thanks for the video! Quick question can you also run GUI programs through the webserver or do you need to install a GUI and run it through VNC? Also like the clip, where can I get one? XD
You can also run a VNC app in Samsung dex and run code there. I haven't tried running a GUI with webserver, although it may be possible. Let me know what you discover! The phone clip is from Mountie! Also check out mountie+! amzn.to/2H4Zos8
@@Develoquent Thanks! It would be great if it was possible as I would prefer not having to go between VNC and Dex if possible. As of now the only alternative I had was running my programs through CoCalc as it lets me do both (code and view GUI apps) through the browser, but I find it slow as the free version has bandwidth limitations, so if it's possible to do in my phone without that hassle it will be great!
I think you need to have a basic understanding of how a command line shell works, as well as whatt github is etc, but you can follow along step by step and get it up and running.
By now I'm sure things have changed causing these exact instructions to be outdated. Ill dive into this again soon with an updated version of Ubuntu etc

The thing is that this os and arch are different than x86 and intel. So it doesn't require that much RAM.

Wait ... but Can I install Apache and Mysql? :D
I think you can!
There are so many things you can do! But running Linux on Android does have its limitations as far as what packages you can install, and what versions will work.
Can I install MS Visual Studio Professional?
Good question! Let me know if you figure that out
Try it out!
@@Develoquent On MS site I found that there is no version of VS Studio Prof. supporting ARM32 architecture, so the answer is no.
Not Work plz help.ubuntu not download
Why don't we go one more step ahead and use VNC viewer to get the full desktop look? Also, wouldn't it be better to run ubuntu inside a container, so that it doesn't mess around with other files by mistake? Just asking.
I found the vnc viewer really takes a lot more ram and battery, though it may be a better option for you if you plan on using more than VScode. Running Ubuntu in a container can help, but i found as long as you aren't changing files or deleting files from your phone and only creating new ones, you will be just fine. Don't mess with stuff you don't understand.
its safe for my phone ? and my data ?
Yes
I'm late to the party! Does this still work with the same instructons?
You may run into some issues but it should still be possible
Thanks a lot for your effort to make this video, and the script!
Currently to run code-server all that we need to do is to run the single line code from the home of the projet. But only in ubuntu, not works in termux. But with ubuntu open so many things like systemd, etc.
how can i stop hosting vs code?
Kill termux or close the ubuntu
What if i restart my phone? How to open then?
Just need to start ubuntu again and run code server!
but it cant run python
I did not install, they demanded proot
How much space does it take?
My note 10+ has 256gb, so there's plenty of room. I don't know how much space it takes, but you will want a phone with at least 6gb of ram and 128gb of storage. I think the ububtu package will take a few gigs but not too much. Have a little space and ram and you should be good. Fully charge your phone, it can drain the battery fairly quickly when you are downloading packages and doing bigger job tasks
I wander if it still works in 2022... I mean installing vs code
There are some errors now because of what i think is an outdated ubuntu package. Ill make an updated version of this soon!
@@Develoquent Yeah we will be waiting for that, Send it soon!!!!
@@Develoquent do i need to root my device in order for this to work , as i cant figure it out
Video coming in the next few days
Boah if you can programming on a desktop like dex computer then a smartphone is really becomes a pc . Who sad that a smartphone is a phone it can also can be called smart camera like the samsung galaxy cam that runs android but still is focused on be a camera or smart radio or smArt flashlight i saw already people programming the arduino on a phone but hold on why is samsung galaxy ultras system taken 90g of storage what does the system do ?! Old android devices just i think use 2 g for the phone system
Stoped to work after some time
See newer videos on my channel about this topic
Thanks for the video! Quick question can you also run GUI programs through the webserver or do you need to install a GUI and run it through VNC?
Also like the clip, where can I get one? XD
You can also run a VNC app in Samsung dex and run code there. I haven't tried running a GUI with webserver, although it may be possible. Let me know what you discover!
The phone clip is from Mountie! Also check out mountie+!

@@Develoquent Thanks! It would be great if it was possible as I would prefer not having to go between VNC and Dex if possible. As of now the only alternative I had was running my programs through CoCalc as it lets me do both (code and view GUI apps) through the browser, but I find it slow as the free version has bandwidth limitations, so if it's possible to do in my phone without that hassle it will be great!
@@Develoquent Running GUI is a dangerous thing to do on an android! If something goes wrong, you should know how to repair partitions. ReSouls.
Run on real devices app,is it bad for real device or not Sir?
Using as a daily machine might not be good for your phones battery and system as it can get pretty hot and drain the battery quickly
As long as the battery is removable, I say go ahead!
@@ritviksapra1368 yeap I have old versions kitkat mobile
@@piyushtidke96 Cool. As long as we can replace the damaged components in the mobile, it will stay in good condition for years to come.
@@ritviksapra1368 yes. You are absolutely right 💯
Hey - how to kill the server?
Killing the termux app will
@@Develoquent Hey I can do this on Samsung tab S7 plus right? Can this tab be used then for regular laptop device?
Superb_
git asks for a username and password yet this did not occur in your demo.
You should be using ssh keys…
Is this something that someone with no experience could handle?
I think you need to have a basic understanding of how a command line shell works, as well as whatt github is etc, but you can follow along step by step and get it up and running.
Yeah I would like to get up and running on coding!

It doesn't work.
By now I'm sure things have changed causing these exact instructions to be outdated. Ill dive into this again soon with an updated version of Ubuntu etc
So far it's working for me
Though I have no idea what I'm doing😀
But iPhone is more secure 🤫
Can you run pygame? LoL 😅
