4. Install [NVM](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm#install--update-script) by following the install guide in the README, just a curl/wget command.
5. Set up NVM for multi-user. After installing NVM it automatically adds the necessary commands for it to work, but it will only work if you are logged in as root:
- Copy the lines NVM asks you to run after running the install script.
- Run `nano /root/.bashrc` and comment out those lines by adding a `#` at the start.
- Run `nano /etc/profile` and paste those lines at the end of the file. Make sure to replace `$HOME` with `/root` on the first line.
- Now run `exit`
- Start Debian again `proot-distro login debian`
6. After following the instructions and setting up NVM you can now install the [required node version](https://coder.com/docs/code-server/latest/npm#nodejs-version) by running:
```bash
nvm install v<major_version_here>
```
7. To install `code-server` run the following:
> To check the install process (Will not actually install code-server)
> If it all looks good, you can install code-server by running the second command
```bash
curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh -s----dry-run
```
```bash
curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh
```
8. You can now start code server by simply running `code-server`.
> Consider using a new user instead of root, read [here](https://www.howtogeek.com/124950/htg-explains-why-you-shouldnt-log-into-your-linux-system-as-root/) why using root is not recommended.\
> Learn how to add a user [here](#create-a-new-user).
2. Run `pkg install tur-repo`
3. Run `pkg install code-server`
4. You can now start code server by simply running `code-server`.
7. Run `touch /root/.pyenv/version && echo "your_version_here" > /root/.pyenv/version`
8. (You may have to start Debian again) Run `python3 -V` to verify if PATH works or not.
> If `python3` doesn't work but pyenv says that the install was successful in step 6 then try running `$PYENV_ROOT/versions/your_version/bin/python3`.
### Working with PRoot
Debian PRoot Distro Dev Environment
- Since Node and code-server are installed in the Debian PRoot distro, your `~/.ssh/` configuration, `~/.bashrc`, git, npm packages, etc. should be setup in PRoot as well.
- The terminal accessible in code-server will bring up the filesystem and `~/.bashrc` in the Debian PRoot distro.
Accessing files in the Debian PRoot Distro
- The `/data/data/com.termux/files/home` directory in PRoot accesses the termux home directory (`~`)
- The `/sdcard` directory in PRoot accesses the Android storage directory, though there are [known issues with git and files in the `/sdcard` path](#git-wont-work-in-sdcard)
Accessing the Debian PRoot distro/Starting code-server
- Run the following command to access the Debian PRoot distro, from the termux shell:
```bash
proot-distro login debian
```
- Run the following command to start code-server directly in the Debian PRoot distro, from the termux shell:
```bash
proot-distro login debian -- code-server
```
- If you [created a new user](#create-a-new-user), you'll need to insert the `--user <username>` option between `login` and `debian` in the commands above to run as the user instead of root in PRoot.
