📱 Coding with Android is Amazing!

If you think you need a PC to start coding, think again! With just an Android phone, you can dive into the world of web and app development. Here’s a showcase of a project created entirely on an Android phone using Acode, Restler, and Termux.

🔧 Tools Used:

• Acode: A powerful code editor with features similar to VS Code, such as auto code completion, keyboard shortcuts, and theme customization.
• Restler: A REST API client for testing and debugging APIs similar to Postman.
• Termux: A terminal emulator for Android that allows you to run Linux commands and scripts.
• Hacker's Keyboard: A pc like Keyboard for Android that allows you to use commands like: Ctrl, Alt, F1, F2, (Up, Down, Right, Left Arrow) etc.
