Many docs still used flat GitHub-wiki page-name links like [Backup](Backup),
[OAuth2](OAuth2) or [FAQ](FAQ) that only resolved on the old wiki; in the docs/
hierarchy they were broken. Rewrite them to correct relative paths of the
existing pages (e.g. ](Backup) -> ](Backup.md), ](OAuth2) -> ](../Login/OAuth2.md),
](Sandstorm) -> ](../Platforms/FOSS/Sandstorm/Sandstorm.md)).

Mapping: page name -> docs/<...>/<Name>.md by filename, with explicit handling
for renamed pages (Caddy/Nginx-Webserver-Config, Wekan-Markdown, the Sandstorm
grain export page, Uberspace) and the REST-API-<X> family -> docs/API/<X>.md.
Ambiguous names resolved by preferring a same-directory file or the primary page.
Anchors and markdown titles preserved. 280 links across the docs tree.

Out of scope (left as-is): source-code references (models/*.js etc.) and
[Link](url) placeholders, which are not docs pages.

Running Wekan server at Android

Requirements:

  • arm64 or x64 Android with at least 3 GB RAM. Tested with with arm64 OnePlus 3 that has 6 GB RAM.
  • It is not necessary to root Android.

1) Install AnLinux and Termux from Play Store

At AnLinux choose:

  • Ubuntu
  • XFCE4
  • Copy those commands to Termux to install Linux.

2) At Termux

When you get from Termux to Ubuntu bash, you can install Wekan similarly like arm64 or x64: Raspberry Pi

Edit start-wekan.sh so you can start Wekan for example:

ROOT_URL=http://localhost:2000
PORT=2000

At Android webbrowser like Chrome and Firefox browse to http://localhost:2000

3) WLAN

If you connect to WLAN, you can get your IP address with command:

ip address

Edit start-wekan.sh so you can start Wekan for example:

ROOT_URL=http://IP-ADDRESS:2000
PORT=2000

Then you can use any computer or mobile phone Javascript capable webbrowser at WLAN to use Wekan at http://IP-ADDRESS:2000 like http://192.168.0.100:2000 . More info about ROOT_URL.

4) Optional: Mobile Linux Desktop

Requirements:

  • 1 WLAN, for example: mobile hotspot, Android device sharing WLAN, hotel WLAN, office WLAN
  • ChromeCast that is connected to HDMI Input of hotel/office/home TV and WLAN
  • Bluetooth keyboard
  • Bluetooth mouse
  • 1 Android device that has:
    • Wekan installed according to steps 1-3 above
    • Android VNC client to local AnLinux Ubuntu desktop
    • Firefox installed with apt-get to that Ubuntu desktop, browsing Wekan at http://IP-ADDRESS:2000
    • Using ChromeCast to show Android full screen at TV

This way, you have:

  • Big TV display
  • Full size keyboard and mouse
  • Full featured Firefox at Ubuntu Desktop using Wekan
