This is another implementation of what's possible inside of termux for all you self hosters.

Find chess here on limewire. Link expires in one week.
Building upon the principles of my chat application, this is another implementation to push the limits of what's possible inside the termux environment.
This script includes all the pieces needed to run a world wide accessable chess game from your pocket. While the implementation of chess isn't perfect by any means, it has been a great learning expirence to figure out all the little parts of what makes a interactive webserver tick.
For testing, I did implement cloudflared within the script just to see if I can host to the clearnet as well. It worked!
Sure, Chess and IRC is cool; but what else can you even do with termux, considering it's really sandboxed?
That's a pretty big sandbox if you can host a web application from it though. It's really not that restricted but there are compatibility issues so you find your self rebuilding primitives to make things work.
I think the next think I want to make is a notes/word processing web app. There is a pretty good use case to be to able to connect and process documents from a private server on any machine.
interesting...
sadly the androids i have are potatoes :(
and if i use my main phone for selfhosting, the battery will commit die
