I've finally written up full instructions on building D apps
for Android by using the linux cross-compiler or native
Android compiler I provide:
https://wiki.dlang.org/Build_D_for_Android
The upcoming ldc 1.4 beta will be the first to include Android
cross-compilation support for all supported host platforms, ie
Windows, Mac, and linux, as all my Android patches have now
been merged. I'll stop putting out my own cross-compiler
builds, though I'll maintain the native ldc package in the
Termux package repo, once that's accepted.
If you want to build full OpenGLES GUI Android apps on your
Android device, this wiki page shows you how to do that too.
You too can be one of the elite few building mobile apps on
your mobile device, and in D!
And there is now an ldc package in the Termux Android app,
updated the wiki page to show how simple it is to install ldc
on your Android device now:
https://wiki.dlang.org/Build_D_for_Android#Native_compilation_2
Make sure to tell everyone you know how easy it is to write D
on your Android smartphone or tablet now, just like the Go
people have been enjoying:

The Termux twitter highlights those now happy about using Node,
Clojure, or Scala on their Android phone, hopefully D is next:
https://mobile.twitter.com/termux
Next up, getting D working on 64-bit ARM devices, which I
recently got access to. David has been working on it already,
hope we can get that done by ldc 1.5:
https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/issues/2153
rdmd and dub are now bundled with the native ldc package for
Termux, so you can easily write small scripts in D on your phone
or build and run tools like DScanner from the D package
repository at code.dlang.org.
For example, here's how you install ldc and run DScanner on your
codebase to count how many lines of D code it has, all on your
smartphone or tablet:
apt install ldc
dub fetch dscanner
dub run dscanner -- -l your-code/
