Describe the solution

I would like to request official support for running and installing the Wrangler CLI in the Termux environment on Android. Currently, installing Wrangler via npm or other package managers in Termux fails due to native dependencies that expect a standard Linux system or Android NDK, which are not available in Termux. Many developers use Termux to code on mobile devices, and official support or a compatibility guide for Wrangler would make Cloudflare Workers more accessible to this community.

Considered drawbacks:

  • Wrangler and its dependencies (such as cpu-features, glibc-version, kerberos, etc.) rely on native code builds that assume a conventional Linux environment, so adding Termux support may require significant adaptation or patching.
  • Some features may be limited if certain dependencies cannot be ported or emulated on Android.

Still, providing official guidance, partial support, or prebuilt binaries would be a big improvement for Termux and Android-based developers who want to use Wrangler.
