Android terminal setup

A light Termux setup for Markdown, notes, and quick edits.

Install the mobile dotfiles profile without cloning the repository. It keeps Termux focused on text work: Neovim for Markdown, Nerd Font icons, shell helpers, Mosh, tmux, Ranger, and local tunnel commands.

Open raw script Dotfiles repository
mobile profile 
curl -fsSL https://www.commandglows.com/termux-script | sh

Run from inside Termux. After installation, close Termux fully and reopen it so the font and terminal properties reload.
