Can your phone run a dev environment?

A straight answer, not a sales pitch. Tell it your phone's RAM and Android version, and it maps out what on-device development is realistic on that class of device — from an editor with language servers to a Linux terminal, local databases and running code. The rule is simple and honest: more RAM means more tooling running at once.
