I need to develop an app to run on an android device, 5" screen, but this has a barcode reader and GPS built-in, using Slax or dietpi as OS, run Node-red and UI on top would this work or be more hassle than its worth, Android studio looks time-consuming to learn and deploy. Could NR integrate with comms on the Android or let's say ex android device?
Did you manage to install slax or dietpi on your android device ?
I would not expect that this is possible (unless you are an android-linux kernel guru).
If you want to run node-red on android you can also check out following page:
