NativeCode

A vibe coding workspace for Android with AI coding tools, desktop editors, and MCP integrations

---

Current package and store identifiers may still use fluxlinux while the public rebrand to NativeCode rolls out.

Modern Android hardware is already capable enough for serious development work. NativeCode reframes that capability around vibe coding: a portable Android workspace where agentic CLI tools, desktop IDEs, language servers, and MCP-powered assistants can live in one place.

• 🤖 AI Coding CLIs - Codex, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, aider, KiloCode CLI, Kiro CLI, QwenCode, OpenCode, Cline, Junie, and similar terminal-first tools
• 💻 Desktop Editors and IDEs - Antigravity, Codex App, VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Trae, Kiro IDE, and browser-based workspaces
• 🔌 MCP and LSP Integrations - Caveman, Context7, context-mode, filesystem, android-mcp, kotlin-mcp, playwright-mcp, github-mcp, Speckit, Agency Agent, and related local tooling
• 📱 Android-Centric Development - Kotlin, Gradle, Android SDK workflows, adb-driven automation, web previews, and mobile-first testing
• 🐧 Portable Linux Runtime - Rootless by default, faster rooted paths when available, with the same Linux-on-Android foundation already documented in this repo

The docs under docs/ are intentionally left as-is for now. They still describe the current Linux runtime, scripts, and installation internals that NativeCode builds on today.

• Android 8.0+ (API 26+)
• Termux (from F-Droid)
• Termux:X11 (for GUI)

1. Download NativeCode from Releases
2. Install Termux from F-Droid
3. Install Termux:X11
4. Open NativeCode and follow setup wizard

Note: until the package rename lands, some package IDs, store listings, and app links may still reference fluxlinux.

Easy setup wizard

NativeCode currently builds on the same Linux-on-Android runtime foundation, including hardware-accelerated graphics for desktop editors, browsers, previews, and GUI tooling:
