# Installing on Android
This page describes how to install and run the Evennia server on an Android phone. This will involve
installing a slew of third-party programs from the Google Play store, so make sure you are okay with
this before starting.

## Install Termux
The first thing to do is install a terminal emulator that allows a "full" version of linux to be
run. Note that Android is essentially running on top of linux so if you have a rooted phone, you may
be able to skip this step. You *don't* require a rooted phone to install Evennia though.

Assuming we do not have root, we will install
[Termux](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.termux&hl=en).
Termux provides a base installation of Linux essentials, including apt and Python, and makes them
available under a writeable directory. It also gives us a terminal where we can enter commands. By
default, Android doesn't give you permissions to the root folder, so Termux pretends that its own
installation directory is the root directory.

prerequisites for Evennia. Commands you should run in Termux will look like this:
