I'm Writing From My Phone

The other day, I got my blog moved solely to my VPS and buildong from a git push. That will let me write from either of our home computers instead of relying on just one to write, build, and then push a published site dorectory up.

I got curious about how else I could write, so I went exploring and discovered Termux, an Android terminal emulator that I'd heard of but never actually used. It's surprisingly robust because I was able.to install got, openssh, and a couple other pqckages to get my site source cloned on to my phone. This.post was written using nano on my phone, which is super bizarre.

since I just need directory access to write Markdown files, I think my next step is to find a nice, simple Markdown editor to do the composing and then pop into Termux to commit and.push my updates. I'm excited about more options for writing on the fly with this.
