Not tested on a device yet. What that means
Keyman for Linux in Breadstick
Breadstick runs Debian's own keyman package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, so Keyman for Linux should look and behave as it does on a Linux PC. On Samsung DeX, Floating mode opens it as its own window beside your Android apps, and Desktop mode runs it on a full Linux desktop.
There is no systemd, and the kernel, disks and network hardware belong to Android, so tools that work with files and processes behave as usual and tools that manage services or drivers have nothing to act on. More about system tools in Breadstick.
About Keyman for Linux
From the project's description
Keyman makes it possible for you to type in over 2,000 languages on Windows, macOS, Linux, iPhone, iPad, Android tablets and phones, and even instantly in your web browser. With the world's most powerful keyboarding engine, intuitive and rapid text input is now possible in your language, and for over 99% of the global population's mother tongues!
Originally created in 1993 to type Lao on Windows, Keyman is now a free and open source keyboarding platform which allows anyone to write and use a keyboard layout for their language. Keyman is available for many platforms, including Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, Linux and the web.
Keyboard layouts are defined with a clear and easy to understand keyboard grammar. Keyman's contextual input model means keyboard layouts can be intelligent and make it simple to type even the most complex languages. Keyboard layouts are distributed through an open catalog to all major desktop and mobile platforms.
