Xiphos in Breadstick

Breadstick runs Debian's own xiphos package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, so Xiphos 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.

On a tablet, touch works as a mouse, and with a keyboard and mouse on Samsung DeX, input works as it does on a PC. More about education apps in Breadstick.
