Linux system tools for Android and Samsung DeX

Terminals, file managers, system monitors and tools for looking after Linux itself. 138 system tools in the catalog: 101 desktop apps, most used first; and 37 terminal and command line programs, by what they are for.

Linux system tools in Breadstick

Breadstick's Linux system is a set of apps sharing a Debian filesystem, not a booted machine: there is no systemd, and the kernel, the disks and the network hardware belong to Android. Tools that work with files, processes and the terminal behave as usual; tools that manage services, disks, drivers or the network have nothing to act on. More in the docs: What Breadstick cannot do: the system itself.

Tested on a device: Thunar and Xfce Terminal.
