Create Apps for *phones* with #Vala !??? Yes, of course, for #LinuxPhones!
Check out the #postmarketos wiki for supported devices, maybe yours works: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Main_Page
You ask, which Vala apps already support phones? The answer is: Almost all that use #libadwaita!
1. Go with the #GNOME App template in #GNOMEBuilder
2. install the "qemu-user-static" package on your host
3. select ARM as target architecture and click the export bundle button in Builder
4. transfer it to the phone and run it!
@vala_lang Just apps? We used to have complete smartphone middleware daemons handling modems and other stuff in Vala back in 2009 😁

@vala_lang I mean, I was running it on my phone back then 😁 It used to be cross-compiled with OpenEmbedded, as compiling on the phone was barely viable back then. Today it wouldn't be a big deal, although today FSO is quite obsolete anyway 😉 Just a curio about "running Vala on your phone".
@dos nobody stops you! But that is a bit harder than just exporting and installing a flatpak :)
You probably need to compile natively on your smartphone.
