Google is developing a Terminal app for Android that'll let you run Linux apps. It'll download and run Debian in a VM for you.

      Install the server, fire it up, open up chrome in Android and point to it?

        Correction: no something’s not right it didn’t work for me. Looks like it’s almost working in nix-on-droid, but something is causing code server to crash.

        Yep

        Or run an X11 app and connect the GUI, but id argue the web interface is more usable on Android.

        Yes! On a tablet with a Bluetooth keyboard. Should I not want to for some reason?
