Was about to say this lol.
Why would you use an emulator to host a discord bot when you can do it natively?

If you were hell-bent on hosting on Android, you could use an emulator. Otherwise, no reason ¯_ツ)_/¯

When i use cd /storage/emulated/0/DiscordBOT
It says its not a directory, and i cant figure out why it says that
You need to make the directory first!
mkdir -p /storage/emulated/0/DiscordBOT

Defiantly it’s not a glitch project. Also it would be cool if there was a way to sync the android version with the glitch version using git
Well, you could turn your phone into a git repo (via command line or an app like this) and then use git hooks to restart your bot.
I have been struggling for about 2 hours and I’m extremely frustrated I have done all the steps properly and I’m extremely confused EVERYTIME I do node index.js this displays I’ve tried to do mkdir -p /storage/emulated/0/DiscordBOT and cd /storage/emulated/0/DiscordBOT then bot NOTHING IS WORKING PLEASE HELP

One thing that could be added is how to set it up with PM2 for easier restarts, starts, reloads, etc.
How would I do that? I’m a rookie to javascript and ofc discordjs but what is pm2 and how do I use it?
PM2 is a production process manager for Node.js applications with a built-in load balancer. It allows you to keep applications alive forever, to reload them without downtime and to facilitate common system admin tasks.
Also, I was asking if @Daw588 might add this to his post.

Oh that sounds cool I’ll look it up to see if I can add it to my bot thank you
No, sorry for the confusion, I wasn’t meaning to talk to you that’s my bad and I should have made that more clear.
I was meaning that JavaScript (the user) could use PM2 instead of using only node so processes could be managed more easily.
Edit: I accidentally said “cleaning” instead of “meaning” lol.

Ummm is there anyway to install sequelize and sqlite3 on termux let me know Cuse I am making a currency bot please help
Helpful Note: Android uses Linux which means you should be able to run tons of different commands and if you ever wanna take a look at the Android source code (and contribute if you want to) go here: https://source.android.com/
But when I do
cd ~ then npm install sequelize it works when i return to my bot file using cd /storage/emulated/0/DiscordBOT and use nodemon it says
[nodemon] 2.0.4
[nodemon] to restart at any time, enter `rs`
[nodemon] watching path(s): *.*
[nodemon] watching extensions: js,mjs,json
[nodemon] starting `node bot.js`
