Tested: works in Breadstick
- Pixel 10 Pro XL · Android 17 · Debian 13 · Python 3.13 made a virtual environment with Debian's python3-venv package, and pip fetched a package from PyPI into it. Without python3-venv, venv stops with Debian's own message saying so.
Python in Breadstick
Breadstick note
Debian 13's Python is 3.13, built for ARM64. Python works, and pip too inside a virtual environment, once Debian's python3-venv package is installed; the Development bundle on Breadstick's Recommended apps screen installs it. Keep projects in your Linux home folder, which is much faster than Android's shared folders.
Breadstick runs Debian's own python3 package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, and a test on a device, above, saw it run. It is a command line program rather than an app with a window of its own: you run it by typing its command in Breadstick's Terminal, or in any terminal window on the Linux desktop, and it needs no Desktop or Floating session running.
Commands it gives you
python3pydoc3pdb3pygettext3
Type one in Breadstick's Terminal to run it.
Interpreters and runtimes run on the device's own ARM64 processor, from Debian's own packages. Keep projects in your Linux home folder, which is much faster than Android's shared folders for trees of many small files. Libraries with compiled parts need an ARM64 Linux build, or the tools to build one on the device. More in the docs: The Terminal.
