RMSRosas termux julia install instructions 2021

I essentially followed the instructions here, which is a pretty recent post: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/running-julia-my-android-phone-paresh-mathur, except I didn't install Ubuntu, but Fedora, for which I used https://github.com/nmilosev/termux-fedora.
1. Install Termux on your Android phone from the F-Droid (don't use the one from the App Store, it is outdated and not maintained). See https://termux.com/
2. Update Termux just in case: pkg update && pkg upgrade
3. Install a linux distro. I used Fedora, but can be anything:
pkg install wget -y && /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nmilosev/termux-fedora/master/termux-fedora.sh
sh termux-fedora.sh f34_arm64
4. Start Fedora with startfedora 🙂
5. Install julia. I installed version 1.6.3, but you can install whatever you want for your system:
curl -O https://julialang-s3.julialang.org/bin/linux/aarch64/1.6/julia-1.6.3-linux-aarch64.tar.gz
tar xvfa julia-1.6.3-linux-aarch64.tar.gz
5. Start Julia with julia-1.6.3/bin/julia and have fun (you may want to add that to your path, as usual)! 😀 :juliaspeeder:
