Using Termux for automation like Tasker/Automate/Macrodroid?
Is it possible to use Termux and its related packages like Termux:API as a device automation app like Tasker? These apps provide a flowchart GUI to implement a logic. With Termux, scripting languages or any other programming language can be used instead.
But is Termux designed for this? Like how does it handle being always-on and ignoring battery optimizations of OS? How to write a service that starts on boot? Any examples?
