Essential for starting SSH servers and services without manual intervention. After installing, open the app once to enable it, then place executable scripts in `~/.termux/boot/`. - **[Andronix](https://andronix.app/)** (optional) - Installs full Linux distributions (Ubuntu, Debian, Arch, etc.) inside Termux using proot. Provides a nice UI for selecting distros and configurations. Alternatively, you can skip this and use [proot-distro](https://github.com/termux/proot-distro) directly from Termux—it's built-in and lighter weight. ## Termux Basics ```bash pkg update && pkg upgrade ``` Accept def...
