Using Julia on Android?

[lungben]

I got Julia 1.5 running on Android (Galaxy Pad S4) as follows:

Step 1

1. Download the termux app on your Android (Play Store worked for me)

Step 2

2. Install Ubuntu on termux by following this guide . For those who are too lazy to open the page, here are the instructions from the page

Installation steps

1. Update termux: apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y
2. Install wget: apt-get install wget -y
3. Install proot: apt-get install proot -y
4. Install git: apt-get install git -y
5. Go to HOME folder: cd ~
6. Download script: git clone https://github.com/MFDGaming/ubuntu-in-termux.git
7. Go to script folder: cd ubuntu-in-termux
8. Give execution permission: chmod +x ubuntu.sh
9. Run script: ./ubuntu.sh
10. Fix resolv.conf: cp ~/ubuntu-in-termux/resolv.conf ~/ubuntu-in-termux/ubuntu-fs/etc/ – for me not required
11. Now just start ubuntu: ./start.sh

Step 3

3. Update apt-get and install wget (for downloading packages) install Julia using

apt-get update 
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install wget

Then download and install the Julia 1.5 binaries for ARM (do not use apt-get install julia because this would install an old Julia version):
