Termux works on stock chromebooks _without_ switching to developer mode.


This is very important for schools which may lend students Chromebooks and thus likely restrict dev mode.


They would likely restrict play store installs, and currently there is no way to side-load Android apps; the normal Android developer mode options does not allow side-loading anyway, much less an enterprise managed device. I don't think there's any way to "restrict" dev mode, necessarily... anyone can put any Chromebook into dev mode, and lose all data that was on it in the process.
