But like, I just want a basic scripting language that I can use to build stuff for my phone.

Give me some predefined items, and some basic functions.

Let me build From the device that will run the code.

Hell, i would settle for Bash. That's not what I want, but I'd settle for it.

@ajroach42 You could probably come up with something with tasker

@troubleMoney what's a tasker?

@ajroach42 http://tasker.dinglisch.net/

It's an automation thing for android but it also lets you build menus and other user interfaces

@troubleMoney oh. ThT sounds neat. I'll look in to it.

But also, I'm on iOS

(which, frankly, I'm embarrassed about.

It is a great operating system aside from all the stuff it won't let me do, but that's no excuse to put up with the limitations.

I was strongly adamant that I wouldn't ever use an iPhone, but they won me over with a good camera and useful accessories... )

@ajroach42 Ah yeah, no idea if there's an equivalent for iOS

The other option I'd go to is bash scripts in termux which also isn't available on iOS
