Well, no. It's a full-blown Debian VM running on your portable Linux-based device, with its own virtual network adapter that accesses the internet via NAT through your phone's physical network adapter. Just like a VM on a normal server.
The terminal program used to access said VM happens to be a web app. Very much like Spice, NoMachine, and others. You can even SSH into it from Termux if you forward the port.
Yeap, i was talking about the terminal app not the VM
