Re: [Ubuntu-phone] Is Ubuntu Phone able to run anything else than Qt/QML apps?

I'd be interested in the answer to this as well -- though to be honest, iOS does have a good office suite, and the ones I've got on my Android phone are quite usable but nowhere near as good as iWork. The real problem is that we don't have a good office suite for phone or tablet yet.

Hi all
I wondered if I (with the finished Ubuntu Phone with Mir and stuff),
would be able to run anything else than Qt/QML apps. It might be, that
they don't look and behave optimal on a touch screen, but they're
usable, at least on a tablet. And let's face it: one of the great
problems with Ubuntu Phone is, that there are only the core apps and a
few more apps. If you were able to run standard Ubuntu applications,
that would be a big benefit of the Ubuntu Phone. Even Android and iOS
doesn't have a good office app, and how about other, more advanced
tools? Only available on the desktop.
And, if this wish isn't to be met, would I have any luck by installing
Gtk and start an application from the command-line?

Regards
Andreas
